I forgot to mention that I am coding this in ActiveState's Win32 implementation ... (i.e. no Mail::Send and no Mail::Mailer) What do you mean by "that's part of the message body you pass whole to it" ? This is what I have so far : 
use strict;
 
use Net::SMTP;
use FileHandle;

my $smtp = Net::SMTP->new('mailhost',
            Hello => 'exchange.cognos.com',
            Timeout => 30,
            Debug   => 1,
);

my $fh_email_title= new FileHandle;
$fh_email_title->open("< email_title.txt")
  or die "Cannot open email title  file:  $!";

my $fh_email_content= new FileHandle;
$fh_email_content->open("< email_content.txt")
  or die "Cannot open email content file:  $!";

$smtp->mail('travis.weir@cognos.com');
$smtp->to('travis.weir@cognos.com');
$smtp->???($fh_email_title->getlines());

$smtp->data();
$smtp->datasend($fh_email_content->getlines());
$smtp->dataend(); 

$fh_email_title->close;

$fh_email_content->close;

$smtp->quit;

autoflush STDOUT 1;

Again, I'm not sure what you meant by your earlier statement .... Thanks again, Travis
