How to use E-mail functionality in Perl script
Dear all,

I have created a perl script with pattern matching, and which loads the data from the Input data file into the Oracle table, and after the load is successful, it deletes the file.

Now i want to do some enhancements to the script;

1) E-mail the user with the log file and the total records loaded into the table.

The e-mail will send the Log file as attachment and also counts the total no. of records loaded in the table.

Can anyone share their experience if they have written this script in PERL.

Well, you can shell out a mail command or do SMTP/ESMTP right in PERL. I'd log all the data in a table, and periodically send an updated report of recent activity, perhaps as a URL and summary, so there is not a cloud of emails to an active user.
