I'm having a problem with MIME::Lite that I'm not quite sure what is happening. I'm trying to achieve this in the header of the message (sent from Thunderbird): 

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed

According to the documentation, to do this I should do something like this: 

sub send_message{
    $msg = MIME::Lite->new( 
                From     => 'someone@somewhere.com',
                BCc      => "$_",
                Subject  => 'Subject',
                Encoding => '7bit',
                Type     => 'text/plain',
                Data     => "$message"
                );
$msg->attr("content-type"         => "text/plain");
$msg->attr("content-type.charset" => "ISO-8859-1");
$msg->attr("content-type.name"    => "flowed");

$msg->send;
}

When I do the above, what I get in the message header is: 

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="ISO-8859-1"; name="flowed"

Note the quotes around ISO-8859-1 and flowed. Am I misunderstanding the documentation?

Thanks for any enlightenment,
Mike

Update: Thanks GrandFather Great find!
