The swatchdog man page for the mail command shows the syntax as: mail [addresses=address:address:...][,subject=your_text_here]However, if the email address contains an '@' sign, then swatch fails to start and gives an error. (A similar error will also occur if the 'subject' contains an '@' sign.)

Sorry, but there are about 3 'bugs' all tied together, but only the main 'swatch' command needs to be modified. 1) The swatch man page (perlpod) 'exec' section is misleading, and slightly incorrect. 2) The man page 'exec' section says that '$N' variables will be substituted. In fact only the first occurrence is substituted, and if other characters are present (e.g. 'abc$2') then it is not substituted at all. 3) Using the 'quit' action takes too long. In my tests it took around 3 minutes for swatch to actually quit.
