I've got things working with the code snippet above, and I'm onto a new "problem":

my $soap_request = <<END;

POST /insuranceClaims HTTP/1.1

Content-Type: Multipart/Related; boundary=MIME_boundary; type=text/xml
+;
        start="<cid:foo4\@bar.net>"
Content-Length: 1024
SOAPAction: http://10.7.2.33:2738/Hello
Content-Description: This is the optional message description.

This time I'm not using SOAP::Lite because of it's lack for multipart MIME messages/Attachments. What that has done, is helped me learn a lot more about this stuff. ;)

It's just that now SOAP replies with "Cannot find 'start' parameter in multipart MIME message". Bah.

if (!$one_thing){$it=$another";}
