Re: 'Best way to email edited array contents?

I may be overlooking something obvious here, but it looks to me like you never include any attachment/body to %mail. You include to, from, subject and smtp but nothing else.

Hi Jim.
Perhaps this is the problem. I tried using the recipe from Oreilly's Perl Cookbook, but still get the same results--an empty email:


$mailer = Mail::Mailer->new("sendmail");
$mailer->open({ From    => $fromaddress,
                To      => $toaddress,
                Subject => $subject,
             })
      or die "Can't open: $!\n";
print $mailer $body;
$mailer->close();


I apologize in advance for my ignorance, but I am not sure where to put the "print $mailer $body;" and the "$mailer->close();" lines.


From what I read, I thought I was to put the "$mailer->close();" line at the end of the script, but I'm not sure where to put the "$body" line. I think my problem is most likely not getting a handle on my object.
Thanks for your help/responses. -Chris

I guess all I needed was a sprintf command joining the $body with each additional user for which quota data was collected:

$body = $body . sprintf ("$user\'s disk usage \= %.2f MB.\nHas %.2f MB
+ available.\nQuota se
t to: %.2f MB\n\n", $used, $remainingquota, $limit);</BOLD>


Now I get the emailed quota data.
Thanks for the reponses, Chris

I guess what you say is true, but how could it work before upgrading?
