I'm not sure what could be the problem here, but I hope someone here has had some experience with MIME::Lite. I am sending an email with a Word document attached, but when the email arrives, the doc is missing the end. The file is one that a user uploads on a form, and I know it gets fully uploaded because I can see it on my server. It's just after I attach it to a multipart message and send it that I get problems.

my $from_address = 'troy.koelling@colorado.edu';
my $to_address = 'troy.koelling@colorado.edu';
my $subject = '[POC] Online Application Completed';
my $message_body = "An application has been completed online.";

my $attachment = "$uploaded_file_dir/$cgi_cfn{'file'}";
my $filename = $cgi_cfn{'poc_template'};

$msg = MIME::Lite->new (
    From => $from_address,
    To => $to_address,
    Subject => $subject,
    Type =>'multipart/mixed'
) or print "Error creating multipart container: $!\n";

$msg->attach (
    Type => 'TEXT',
    Data => $message_body
) or print "Error adding the text message part: $!\n";

$msg->attach (
    Type => 'application/msword',
    Path => $attachment,
    Filename => $filename,
) or die "Error adding $attachment: $!\n";

$msg->send();

As I said, the mail sends and there exists an attachment which contains the first 80% of the file (as compared by opening the original and the attached versions in vim.) As an additional point of interest, $msg->print(); prints out exactly what I receive, i.e. ~80% of the word document inline with the message. Thank you Monks, Troy
