in reply to MIME::Lite in CGI hangs if there are attachments
Your syntax is wrong (well sort of). You need
$FileEmail->attach( Type => "application/octet-stream", Path => "/file.exe", Filename => "File.exe" Disposition => 'attachment' );
You are missing the Disposition key which may fix the problem as without it you rely on the attach to single part hack. You can check what is bing sent with print $FileEmail->as_string - you should see what looks like an normal email with boundaries and the base 64 encoded file. If you don't then you probably have a permissions or a path problem so add a debugging line or two to try to open the file from the script - if this fails you have isolated your problem. Do you really have a file called file.exe in your / (root) directory? You need a full valid path to the file and your script (running as user nobody/apache/etc) must have read permission on it. Don't try to use relative paths if you want to avoid pain.
