In a effort to make the myself feel like less of a "retardo" and more like some one who did there research for 3 days before asking this question. and maybe get back a couple points.
my $name_coded = &jcode::sjis($name);
then changed the the value in the mail out portion to
$name_coded fixed my problem.
Thanx

... ps I got this anwser from a japanese text book.
Well, I saw use Jcode; and made the assumption(d'oh) that you've actually used it.
If you've got perl 5.7 and up, you should definetly just use Encode (as reccomended in perlunicode)
and use
use Encode qw/ encode decode /;
my $name_coded = encode("7bit-jis", decode("euc-jp",$name));
That is assuming that $name is encoded in euc-jp, and 7bit-jis is what you actually want (as opposed to shiftjis, in which case you just put in shiftjis ).
