Thanks cbkihong, I saw that already, this would probably require fork(); but it won't work for me, at least in the way I wanted, I have arbitrary number of processes started via system command, and I can't use their PIDs, plus the execution of the subroutine call itself is successful, so I cannot do even :
Code:
wait &sub-call;
    if ($? == 0) {
        # do something else;
}

I think I'll wait for STDIN interaction while "chomp"-ing the input, this should ensure that processes / SSH transfers in the background are done, assuming someone is looking at the external log file in real time.

Mail::Message::Wrapper::SpamAssassin(3pm)		User Contributed Perl Documentation		 Mail::Message::Wrapper::SpamAssassin(3pm)

NAME

       Mail::Message::Wrapper::SpamAssassin - Connect a Mail::Message with Mail::SpamAssassin

INHERITANCE

	Mail::Message::Wrapper::SpamAssassin
	  is a Mail::SpamAssassin::Message

SYNOPSIS

	# WARNING: requires OLD SpamAssassion 2.x, not the new 3.x
	# See Mail::Box::Search::SpamAssassin for the preferred interface
	# However, it is possible to do:

	my $msg    = ...;   # some Mail::Message object
	my $sa	   = Mail::Message::Wrapper::SpamAssassin->new($msg);
	my $spam   = Mail::SpamAssassin->new;
	my $status = $spam->check($sa);

	$msg->label(spam => 1) if $status->is_spam;
	$status->rewrite_mail;	# Adds spam lines to header

DESCRIPTION

       WARNING: This module only works with the old version of SpamAssassin: version 2.x.  The newer 3.x releases have changed the way that
       messages are kept. Please contribute improved code.

       The "Mail::Message::Wrapper::SpamAssassin" class --sorry for the long package name-- is a wrapper around Mail::SpamAssassin::Message, which
       is an interface to the spam checking software of Mail::SpamAssassin.

METHODS

       Mail::Message::Wrapper::SpamAssassin->new(MESSAGE, OPTIONS)
	   Creates a wrapper around the MESSAGE.  The already present fields from a previous run of Spam::Assassin (or probably fake lines) are
	   removed first.

SEE ALSO

       This module is part of Mail-Box distribution version 2.105, built on May 07, 2012. Website: http://perl.overmeer.net/mailbox/
