in reply to Sending a large mail with Mail::sendMail

I also tried to send the long mail in Net::SMTP but with no success.

I don't know that other module at all, but if you used Net::SMTP, then you should know precisely why it didn't work!!

my $smtp = Net::SMTP->new($server, Hello=>"dude!", Timeout=>20, Debug= +>1) or die; # Debug makes Net::SMTP spew the session to your STDERR.

If you need assistance with the output, I can help, but it should be pretty clear what's going wrong.

    thanks for the advice
    I did have the debug mode on, but with didn't find any usefull info. I will try sending the mail to a different acount (like the other guys suggested), and if that doesn't work, I will try looking at the log again
    Thanks again Guy

      ...debug mode on, but with didn't find any usefull info...

      I find that rather hard to believe. Either there was actually useful info there or the mail system accepted the message for delivery. If it was accepted, then you need to ask your mail systems administrator why the system is silently discarding those messages ... and no amount of perl magic will save you from that fate.
