[thelist] Perl beginner's questions plu Outlook issue

[Erik Sabowski]

just set up a hash, and have it so that the email address is different
based on what the item chosen was

my %emails = (		#slashs are to escape the '@'
	one	=>	this\@hey.com,
	two	=>	that\@you.com,
	three	=>	what\@poof.com,
)

assign your params to variables, and whichever one is used for the
different catagory can be used to choose the right address:

$address = $emails{$cat};

if they chose "two" as the catagory, $address would be "that at you.com"
