I'm trying to use the Windmail header 'Attach' to add an attachment to an email that the my Perl Script is generating. Here are the relevant code snippets: 
use Win32::ODBC;
use CGI qw(:standard);
use CGI::Carp qw/fatalsToBrowser/;
    $mailsubject = "Subject: ".$Form{'subject'};
   $attachment = "Attach: ".$Form{'attachment'};
            open MAIL, "|c:/windmail/windmail -t";
            print MAIL "To:$Email\@ybs.co.uk\n";
            print MAIL "From:Internal_Comms\@ybs.co.uk\n";
            print MAIL "Subject:".$mailsubject." \n\n";
            print MAIL "Attach:".$attachment."\n\n";
            print MAIL "\n\n";
            print MAIL $mailtext;
            close MAIL;

The variables are being read from a web-form, but essentially are just text:
$email = 'me'
$mailsubject = 'Any text'
$attachment = 'T:\anything.pdf'
$mailtext = 'some text'
What it actually sends is this: 
To: me
From: Internal_Comms
Subject: Any text

Message body:
T:\Anything.pdf

Some text

When the email arrives in my inbox, it has the little attachment icon against it, but when I open the email there actually is no attachment. What gives?

Please note I cannot use MIME::Lite or some such, it's Windmail or bust for me! :-(
