Email Attachment Script

Hello,

I created the following script but i'm trying to figure out why i keep getting an error.

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use warnings;

my $baseDir = '/export/home/omcadmin/bin';
my $attachment = "$baseDir/message.txt";

my $from = 'xxx@xxx.com';
my $to = 'xxx@xxx.com';
my $cc = 'xxx@xxx.com';
my $subj = 'Testing';
my $body = 'TEST';


my $cmd = "uuencode $attachment |mailx, '-s',$subj, '-c', $cc, $to, "-f$from"";
system ("$cmd");



The error i receive is:
email.pl: use: not found
email.pl: use: not found
email.pl: my: not found
email.pl: my: not found
email.pl: my: not found
email.pl: my: not found
email.pl: my: not found
email.pl: my: not found
email.pl: my: not found
email.pl: my: not found
email.pl: syntax error at line 19: `system' unexpected



Any suggestions?
