Hey guys, i'm trying to add some extra functionality to a little program I wrote (perl first timer). I want to open a "new mail" outlook window with an attachment in it.
What follows is a little code snippet I found on the net. I edited this a bit but can't seem to add the attachment to the mail window.
The code opens the new mail window but there is no attachment in it.
It should contain a pdf doc located in the same folder as the script.
How can I add the attachment to the new mail windows?
The cpan documentation isn't really clear to me

use Win32::OLE;
use Win32::OLE qw(in with);
use Win32::OLE::Variant;
use Win32::OLE::Const 'Microsoft Outlook';
@attachments = ("output.pdf");



my $Outlook = Win32::OLE->GetActiveObject
                           ('Outlook.Application') ||
                Win32::OLE->new('Outlook.Application');
my $Outlook = new Win32::OLE('Outlook.Application');

# Create Mail Item
my $item = $Outlook->CreateItem(0);  # 0 = mail item.


$attach = $item->{'Attachments'};
$attach->add(@attachments);

$item->display();
