I have no idea what that error message means as far as emacs is
concerned, but your Perl system() command is wrong. That command is
calling the executable "emacs" with three arguments: '-nw',
$temp_file, and '-f mail-mode'. That last one is the problem. This is
no different than if you had called emacs on the command line,
surrounding '-f mail-mode' in quotes. You need -f and mail-mode to be
two separate arguments, not one argument:
my $status = system('emacs', '-nw', $temp_file, '-f', 'mail-mode');
