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

I am using the Net::SMTP module to send shipment confirmation emails for an e-commerce site. I would like to create a nice columnar list of the products, but since the length of the product description varies, I cannot do that using my current method of manually creating an array of lines.

Is there anything equivalent to the reports feature for email that I could use to do this?
