I'm using MIME::Lite to send a wide email, which is formatted as HTML (could be formatted as text if needed, or as an attachment). How do I control the printing to orient the email to an 11 X 8 1/2 (landscape/horizontal) style instead of 8 1/2 X 11 (portrait/vertical)?
In theory you could use CSS to format the HTML to be oriented to the landscape mode, but I don't know of any mail readers (or browsers for that matter) that would support it.
Short answer: you don't. The user controls how an email/web page is printed.
If it really needs to be landscape when printed then the layout of the rest is likely important too. For exact layouts like that I would use PDF. HTML can come close, and is better in most cases, but if you need to specify how it prints exactly nothing matches PDF.
