Short Mail Program Help
Hi,
I have been out of the loop with my UNIX/Linux for several years and have been working mainframe. I was trying to create a short two line program to create a list of email addresses as a variable and then send the list a file. Here is what I did and I thought that is was right, but I am not getting the email:
LIST=jbr3673 mmd4143 ttg2210
mail LIST <test
Please let me know what I am forgetting, I know that it must be something very stupid, but I just don't remember, it has been several years.
Thanks in advance for any help

mail::mboxparser::mail::convertable
MboxParser::Mail::Convertable(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation MboxParser::Mail::Convertable(3pm)
NAME
Mail::MboxParser::Mail::Convertable - convert mail for sending etc.
SYNOPSIS
use Mail::MboxParser;
[...]
# $msg is a Mail::MboxParser::Mail-object
my $mail = $msg->make_convertable;
$mail->delete_from_header('date', 'message-id');
$mail->replace_in_header('to', 'john.doe@foobar.com');
$mail->add_to_header( ['cc', 'john.does.brother@foobar.com'],
where => 'BEHIND' );
$mail->send('sendmail');
DESCRIPTION
This class adds means to convert an email object into something that could be send via SMTP, NNTP or dumped to a file or filehandle.
Therefore, methods are provided that change the structure of an email which includes adding and removing of header-fields, MIME-parts etc
and transforming them into objects of related modules.
Currently, only basic manipulation of the header and sending using Mail::Mailer is provided. More is to come soon.
This class works non-destructive. You first create a Convertable-object and do any modifications on this while the Mail-object from which
it was derived will not be touched.
METHODS
delete_from_header(header-fields)
Given a list of header-field names, these fields will be removed from the header. If you want to re-send a message, you could for
instance remove the cc-field cause otherwise the message would be carbon-copied to the addresses listed in the cc-field.
add_to_header(array-ref)
add_to_header(array-ref, where => 'BEFORE' | 'BEHIND')
add_to_header() takes a reference to a two-element list whose first element specifies the header-field to add or to add to while the
second elements specifies the data that should be added. 'where' specifies whether to add at the beginning or at the end of the header.
Defaults to 'BEHIND' if not given.
replace_in_header(header-field, new_data)
First element must be the header-field to be replaced while the second argument must be a string indicating what will be the new
content of the header-field.
send(command, args)
Literally inherited from Mail::Internet. Commands can be "mail" (using the UNIX-mail program), "sendmail" (using a configured sendmail
or compatible MTA like exim), "smtp" (for using Net::SMTP) and "test" which will only display what would be sent using /bin/echo.
Additional arguments will be passed on to Mail::Mailer->new() which is in fact what Mail::Internet->send() uses.
For more details, see Mail::Mailer
