Hey guys, I need to generate a header like this:
From: IDI Solutions <proactive@client.policy.net>
Here is what I am using:
$proactiveEmail = 'proactive@' . 'robert.policy.net'; $msg = MIME::Lite->new( From =>"\"IDI Solutions\" <$proactiveEmail>", 'Errors-to' => "bounces\@$clientid.policy.net", To =>"$TheAdminsEmail", Precedence => 'special-delivery', #Cc =>'robert@idi.net', Subject =>'Bulk Delete Completed', Type =>'text/plain', Data =>"$message" );
However, I am getting this error:
[Fri Feb 7 10:17:11 2003] bulkchanges-shared: at /xxx/qqq/yyy/zzz/bu +lkchanges-shared line 439 [Fri Feb 7 10:18:29 2003] bulkchanges-shared: SMTP MAIL command faile +d: [Fri Feb 7 10:18:29 2003] bulkchanges-shared: Bad address syntax [Fri Feb 7 10:18:29 2003] bulkchanges-shared: [Fri Feb 7 10:18:29 2003] bulkchanges-shared: at /xxx/qqq/yyy/zzz/bu +lkchanges-shared line 439
What's going on here? How can I get my email headers to work correctly? The problem is in the From: line, but I dont know how to generate multi-word <email> From: headers in MIME::LIte. Thanks!
