Sendmail error

[MayFlowerNew]

I have following code

/usr/lib/sendmail -oi -t <<EOF
To:=abc@xyz.com;
Subject: abc
test
EOF

But I get this weird error
Bareword found where operator expected at abc.pl line 124, near "/usr/lib"
(Missing operator before lib?)
syntax error at abc.pl line 124, near "/usr/lib"
In string, @xyz now must be written as \@xyz at abc.pl line 124, near "To:=abc@xyz"
Execution of abc.pl aborted due to compilation errors.

Please help
Thanks

This isn't a sendmail error, it's a problem with your perl code.

Could you please tell me what is it? I cant figure out the problem..

Thanks

Try following the advice of the interpreter and escaping the @ sign.

Beyond that, you need a more appropriate venue--may I suggest you try the tek-tips perl forum?
