 Now THAT is a GREAT idea!! having zmailer use the latest version (or
whatever version you want to stick in there) of PERL makes alot of sense to
me. Perl and many of the extensions to it (OraPerl etc..) would be a great boon
to the application. Customizations would be alot easier (which have to be done
in any mailing system IMHO) and make changes easier to understand.
