Perl how to replace e-mail address from the file
I have a script which updates the users e-mail address according to wherever the users type in the browser. The script does other stuffs but this what i am struggling with ..lol. Basically, we are using the command below to try to update the e-mail, however since the e-mail address has "@" the perl is not able to update (e-mail is not an array).
perl -pe 's/$old_email/$newemail/g' -pi $file`;
The e-mail are defined in two variables (old and new email)
Can you anyone please help me on this?
ps: Sorry, i am new using perl.
Thank you all,
Carlos
