stdin replacing 80th character with =
I'm sure that there is quite a simple solution to this, but so far, I'm not having any luck. I'm redirecting e-mail to a perl script that uses Email::Filter and then does some parsing and forwarding.
I'm using Email::Filter->new() to pull it into a variable. When I forward the message and output the body, every 80th character is replaced with an equals sign. It's clearly representing the new line, but no matter what I can't get rid of them. I've tried using substitution (s/\n\r//gi) and chomp, but neither are clearing them up. I want the message to be in its original form - with the lines concatenated as it was sent.
What am I missing? How can I correct this and get the lines back to their original length?
Thanks,
Doug

email::send::io
Email::Send::IO(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Email::Send::IO(3pm)
NAME
Email::Send::IO - Send messages using IO operations
SYNOPSIS
use Email::Send;
my $mailer = Email::Send->new({mailer => 'IO'});
$mailer->send($message); # To STDERR
$mailer->mailer_args('filename.txt');
$mailer->send($message); # write file
DESCRIPTION
This is a mailer for "Email::Send" that will send a message using IO operations. By default it sends mail to STDERR, very useful for debug-
ging. The IO functionality is built upon "IO::All". Any additional arguments passed to "send" will be used as arguments to "IO::All::io".
You can globally change where IO is sent by modifying the @Email::Send::IO::IO package variable.
@Email::Send::IO::IO = ('-'); # always append to STDOUT.
Examples
Sending to STDOUT.
send IO => $message, '-';
Send to a socket.
send IO => $message, 'server:1337';

Email::Send, IO::All, perl.
