The company at which I work, being the funny place that it is, still doesn't have Perl on the "accepted language" list.

I wrote some project code to do MIME-attachment bulk emailing (legitimate bulk email to clients, not spam). Yesterday, the Project Manager asked if the tool used modules, and of course I said "Yes." I shouldn't have. He then asked if I could somehow include the module code in the script, since getting a production waiver (imagine that) to put one Perl script in production would be easier than getting three, one for the script, and one each for the modules I am using (I think that is all I need; the rest are already loaded - 5.005_02).

I tried just copying the module code into the script, but that doesn't seem to work. I looked through everything I could find in Super Search, but didn't find anything I thought could help.

I know I am probably opening a can of worms by asking about this, but is there any way I can technically do this, whether it is right or wrong to do so? As far as my use statements, I only have Text::Autoformat and MIME::Lite.
