You can't "stringify" a MIME::Lite object by simply referring to it in a string context. Your relevant line of code needs to be changed slightly: `$body = $msg->as_string;` [download] Or use `@body`, whatever. Your post could also use some `<code>` tags, but I guess you can't fix it if you're not logged in.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
