I don't know perl, so I'm not sure of this syntax. However, where in 
this command to you specify the e-mail address to send the message to? 
This just looks like an assignment, not an execution of the Mail command.

I presume that you really mean /usr/share/cvs/contrib/log.pl, rather 
than just 'log'. If not, what does /usr/share/cvs/contrib/log do?
