sendmail

This is what i do .
In a perl script i do the following

$ENV{PATH} = "/bin:/usr/bin";
open(MAIL, "| /usr/lib/sendmail -q1m")
or print "Cannot open send_mail";
print MAIL "To: $recipients\n";
print MAIL "From: $G_thirdparty_admin_email\n";
print MAIL "Subject: $subject \n\n";
print MAIL "$contents\n";
close MAIL;

I expect the mail to be sent after 1m but it does not seem to work
