Attaching files to a Mail::Send message

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

O learned brethren,

I am familiar with the use of Mail::Send to generate and send an email message from Perl. Is there a recommended simple means by which I may add an appropriately MIME-encoded attachment to a message created with Mail::Send? I have found MIME::Entity, but I haven't yet been able to make the two work in combination.

Use MIME::Lite. Very easy to use and good documentation. Perl is Huffman encoded by design.	[reply]

That is exactly why I started using Mail::Sender, which I found both simple and useful. Flavio perl -ple'$_=reverse' <<<ti.xittelop@oivalf Don't fool yourself.	[reply]
