Ticket 743

Specifying mail options on the command line using the qsub wrapper works fine:

qsub -m abe mailtest.run

However, when -m is used as a PBS directive in the job script, eg:

#!/bin/sh
#PBS -N cpi
#PBS -l nodes=2:ppn=8
#PBS -l walltime=00:08:00
#PBS -u ruprech
#PBS -m abe
#PBS -M my.email@colorado.edu
#PBS -j 
module load openmpi/openmpi-1.6.4_intel-13.0.0_torque-4.1.4_ib
time mpirun -n 16 ./cpi-rh6

the following error results:

qsub mailtest.run 
There was an error running the SLURM sbatch command.
The command was:
'/curc/slurm/slurm/14.03.0/bin/sbatch mailtest.run  2>&1'
and the output was:
'sbatch: error: -m=abe invalid
'

If instead I do
#PBS -m a
#PBS -m b
#PBS -m e

then it works as expected.

I don't see an obvious error in the qsub perl script.  Any ideas on how to go about fixing this?
