For the reason that you are printing @auther, the auther array, and
$auther[0] is uninitialized.

You init'd $file to 0 but bumped it to 1
   $file++
before ever using it in the auther array.  So $auther[0] is empty,
$auther[1] holds your first From string.

If you take out the $file++, then $auther[0] holds the first From: string
and it's not empty (uninitialized).
