So if I change: $fh = $msg->open(); # $msg is an instance of mail send
to
$fh = $msg->open('sendmail');

I had to do the same thing to make the cpantest work on some of my boxes the symptom was that the header was screwed :
The subject was thrown out of the Header and appeared in the body prefixed by '~s'.
(Thus making it an invalid bounced message (no subject))

I ended up giving up and using Mail::Sendmail or MIME::Lite but its good to know a fix.

  I was going mad over this - thanks for the fix. I guess I should've realised it was using mail sooner.
