there is...MIME::Entity...used thusly (from a perl program I use to email pdf
files, but you pass the mim-type on the command line, so it can send any mime
type):
my $top = MIME::Entity->build(Type => "multipart/mixed",
From => "[EMAIL PROTECTED]",
Bcc => $address,
Subject => "Mills Messenger by
e-Mail");
$top->attach( Path => $file_to_send,
Type => $mime_type,
Encoding => "base64");
my $message = "Attached is your Mills Messenger for this week. Enjoy!";
$top->attach(Data=>$message);
open MAIL, "|/usr/sbin/sendmail.postfix -t -oi -oem" or die "Error on mail
o
pen is: $!\n";
$top->print(\*MAIL);
close MAIL;
