Dude, use modules

It might have Hack Value to write your own query string parser or your own code to invoke standard utilities, but, really, better to just use a module.
use strict; use Mail::Sendmail;
...
sendmail ( 'From' => $FROM,
'To' => $to,
'smtp' => $SMTP_SERVER,
'Subject' => $what,
'Message' => $text
) or die $Mail::Sendmail::error;
Here's the Mail::Sendmail FAQ.
