in thread MIME::LITE - Body contents and attachments

Based upon your coment, i'm pretty sure that you were driving at print() and/or print_body(). Unfortunatly, I was not able to get those to work(lack of knowledge). I tried a combination of using Path, FH, readnow, with no success. However, I was able to use data by cat'ing the file to a variable.

If you would be so kind to possible disclose on how you would have gotten it to work with print() or print_body(), or what ever other means you were driving at, I would appreciate it.

Thanks
Gary

    No, I wasn't driving at print() or print_body(), I was driving at getting the contents of the file into $some_variable that you could dump into the email with Data => $some_variable, which you did, one way or another :)

    Personally, I wouldn't use qx{} to cat the contents of the file, I'd probably read it using your favorite flavor of open and <>, but as always, TIMTOWTDI.

    I'm glad you arrived at your own solution, though :)
