Using system()...to call mailx

[awolff01]

Hello,

I need to write a script to send mail to a user.

My plan is to use:

system(mailx -s &quot;Script $f returned $sub&quot; me@me.com < body);

for some reason I get a whole bunch of errors:

Bareword found where operator expected at testpl.pl line 22, near &quot;&quot;Script $f Returned with RC = $1&quot; awolff&quot;
(Missing operator before awolff?)

Is my syntax incorrect? Or is running mailx via system() not possible?

Thank You!!
