Most wise monks:
I am using the module Mail::Send in a particular script because it is the best available on this server. When sending emails, I am getting a rather interesting problem, and am not sure how to deal with it.
$msg = new Mail::Send;
$msg->add('From', $rs->{'em_from'} );
$msg->to( $rs->{'em_to'} );
$msg->cc( $rs->{'em_cc'} );
$msg->bcc( $rs->{'em_bcc'} );
$msg->subject( $rs->{'em_subject'} );
# print the message to mail it
# $fh = $msg->open();
$fh = $msg->open('sendmail'); # explicit
$rs->{'em_body'} =~ s/\n/\r\n/sg; # convert line-endings for windows m
+achines.
print $fh $rs->{'em_body'};
$fh->close(); # completes message and sends it
The mail gets sent just fine. However, I have a comma-delimited list of recipients in $rs->{'em_bcc'}, and the first address in the bcc list becomes part of a header:
X-Final-To: bccaddress@site.com
Obviously I chose BCC for a reason, but here it's not working. Does this have to do with the order in which I am adding the headers? I don't want any BCC addresses showing up in any of the headers. I've tried setting the to, cc, etc fields when creating the new Mail::Send object too, but it all works the same of course.
Is this just a sendmail thing that I've never experienced before?
Thanks for your help.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
