I think you want "\n".

Subject: join \n?




I'm running a script that does something like this:


open(CMDHandle, "ssh host1 cat /tmp/file |");
while(<CMDHandle>) {
  chomp;
  push(@Report, $_);
}

$Report=join('\n', at Report);

system("echo $Report | mail user at host");


A bit ugly but does what I need real well.  The problem I'm having is the
join.  When the email gets to my client it has "\n" embeded instead of
standard newlines.

Should I just use ^M instead or what?
