Subject: Fork in Mail::Mailer
Concerned is Mail::Mailer.pm 1.73, 1.66 is okay, I cannot say anything about other versions. Used Perl: v5.8.7 OS: Linux Slackware slamd64, 10.2 problem: After $mailer->open(), the system forks and two instances follow up the script. Running the script you get the following output: ------------------------------------------------------ snip 1 2 around now:123hours: Sending Email to frank: Subject: nothing 2 around now:123hours: Sending Email to frank: Subject: nothing after function after function ------------------------------------------------------ snap Comparison between versions 1.66 and 1.73 results in some more lines concerning 'fork'. Hope that helps.
