Thanks for the response Peter!
This is being performed through a browser as part of an admin tool and when
I added the below code as suggested the entire file is sent but all the MIME
info is displayed on the screen. How can I eliminate this, as it would just
confuse the user.
This is what I added after the shebang line:
BEGIN {
$| = 1; print "Content-type: text/html\n\n"
}
I put it at the beginning of the subroutine that sends out the email but
zero are sent out:
foreach my $email_address (@email) {
$| = 1; print "Content-type: text/html\n\n"
open (MAIL, "| /var/tmp/sendmail -oi -t -X
/var/tmp/sendmail_email.log") || display_error("Mail
error", "Can't open sendmail $!");
print MAIL "To: $email_address\n";
print MAIL "From: $from\n";
print MAIL "Cc: \n";
print MAIL "Subject: $subject_message\n\n";
print MAIL "$email_text\n";
close (MAIL) || display_error("Mail error", "Can't close
sendmail $!");
}
Any advice would be appreciated,
Regards,
Mike Stussie
