Hey hey, can anyone help me i'm stuck getting my email to work properly.....
Heres my code
        my $msg = MIME::Lite->new(
                    From    =>'me@myhost.com',
                    To      =>'mehomeemail@myhost.com',
                    Subject =>'Test Message',
                    Type    =>'multipart/mixed'
          );
# Add the text message part:
        $msg->attach(Type     =>'TEXT',
                    Data     =>"Here goes"
                    );

        # Add the image part
        $msg->attach(Type     =>'image/gif',
                    Path=>'/foo/baa.gif',
                    Disposition => 'attachment'
                    );
        # send it

        $msg->send();

This sends the mail ok but the attachment isnt shown, now
I've narrowed this down to the Header and more
specifically the Content-Type header of the part
relating to the image - it says....

Content-Type = "image/gif" name="baa.gif"

This works perfectly on a standard client say firefox but
non-standard - bespoke type mail clients have a
problem - basically I need to change the Content-Type
to....
Content-Type = "image/gif"

Thanks
