SPUG: Perl email

Gurus,

The below sendmail script originated from the O'reilly Perl Cookbook.  The
problem that I am having is I am not able to pass the contents of $address
into the To: position for use as an address.  I get an error returned, "No
recipient addresses found in header"  If I populate, To:
cnord\@mail-wncc.sc.attws.com  , then the email is sent on its way, no
problem.  However the contents of $market displays in Subject:, and the
contents of @mdii fills the body of the message.

Ideas on how to pass the contents of $address into the To:  position?
Ideas?

Thanx,

Chris Nord
