A user complained after receiving a couple of empty emails. The To,Subject,Content fields were all blank. Only the From field had content.
After checking the Anomy logs I picked up the following "undefined value" errors
going back a while. It's was reported by version 1.67 and 1.66 (that's as far back
as my logs go).
 

Can't use an undefined value as a symbol reference at /usr/local/anomy-167/bin/Anomy/Sanitizer.pm line 1064.

   1055         }
   1056         else
   1057         {
   1058             $$fn =~ s/\$/ $charray[ int(rand(35.99)) ] /eg;
   1059         }
   1060     }
   1061     while (($cnt++ < 5) &&
   1062            (!defined ($fh = IO::File->new($$fn, O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_RDWR))));
   1063
   1064     binmode($fh);
   1065     return $fh;

 

Does anyone know what could cause this problem ??
Line is 1064 binmode($fh);
