Thanks for your insights.

Here's the bare minimum script I had originally set up for testing:
---
#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use utils qw(%ERRORS);

print "Perl here.\n\n";
exit($ERRORS{'OK'});
---

I have been swapping it out with a SH version, which works:
---
#!/bin/sh

echo "SH here"
echo ""
---


The debugging log that I set up as per Stanley's suggestion of  
editing p1.pl:

Mon Mar  6 11:27:08 2006 eval_file: successfully compiled "/etc/ 
nagios/messages/test | /bin/mail -s "** PROBLEM alert - localhost/ 
HTTPD is CRITICAL **" jdaily at apparatus.net".
Mon Mar  6 11:27:08 2006 run_package: "/etc/nagios/messages/test | / 
bin/mail -s "** PROBLEM alert - localhost/HTTPD is CRITICAL **"  
jdaily at apparatus.net" returning (0, "Perl here.

").


So it looks to me as if ePN is fine with the script, but the output  
does not seem to be delivered to /bin/mail as it is with the shell  
version.
