Hmmm...there are other scripts running in cron jobs (which is where I want to put this, when it's working) that have that mailx line and are working as designed. In fact, this script works as designed until I put in the sleep.
I think the problem is, with my current code, I'm telling it to sleep, but then never do anything after the sleep. So it's coming back after x minutes and completing, but not really doing anything. I need something after the sleep to tell it to try again.
How can I "name" the nested test so that I can easily refer back to it again after the sleep? Rather than duplicating the code?

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';
