If you run the script, then run the grep from the command line against this
file ($mlist), the grep finds all the values you expect?
To paraphrase Inigo Montoya "I don't think you're using the grep you think
you're using"
Try hardcoding the full path for grep, which is usually a good idea in shell
scripts anyway.
