rhymejerky has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I am writing a perl script that attachs html document. I am using MIME::Lite to send the message out. However, I am not able to attach it. Here is the sniplet of the code 

use MIME::Lite; 
 
my $msg = MIME::Lite->new ( 
    From => "from@example.org", 
    To => "to@example.org", 
    Subject => "My subject", 
    Type => 'text/html'   
); 
 
$msg -> attach ( 
    Type => 'text/html', 
    Data => "<html><body>hi</body></html>" 
);

Am I missing anything? Thanks

    The Type of your mail is wrong. Your first Type must be Type => 'multipart/mixed'. 
    my $msg = MIME::Lite->new ( 
    From => "from@example.org", 
    To => "to@example.org", 
    Subject => "My subject", 
    Type => 'multipart/mixed'   
); 
 
$msg -> attach ( 
    Type => 'text/html', 
    Data => "<html><body>hi</body></html>" 
);
