As far as I can see, it's caused by the DESTROY handler of the
Log::Dispatch::Email module, which is called when the program exits and
calls </font></font><font face="Arial,sans-serif" size="2"><font

or $? to 0 (or both) and therefore (see perldoc -f die) modifies the
exit value.<br>

If you want to help, you could narrow it down even more, based on the
