Subject:   problem getting perl script to run

I set up the SSH tunnel just fine, but when I tried to set up the perl script, everything went wrong. Basically, I can't get the script to run. AppleScript Menu is installed and all, but when I click on the script, it just launches the editor with the script text inside it, not the script itself. Help!

    I still can't get it to work either but I did figure out that you need to do the following:
    1) It must go in the AppleScript Menu directory (/Library/Scripts/securemail.txt)

    2) You must launch it from the menu bar (don't click on it from the folder or your mac won't know it's a perl script)

    3) Read this article if you are having permission problems ( http://www.macdevcenter.com/pub/a/mac/2003/11/07/scripting_osx.html )

    I hope this helps.
