Mail attachment with html message body

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

Hi Monks, I have been using Mail::Sender for sending mail with attachment. Is there a way of sending mail with attachment along with a HTML message body.We dont need any files or links on the message body though.The message body is simple html with tables. But along with this i have to send two excel files as attachment. Please let me know if you have any pointer.Thanks.

See `OpenMultipart` in the documentation: Mail::Sender If you can use a different module, then it is much easier with Courriel::Builder and Email::Sender.	[reply]

My favorite module for that is MIME::Lite.	[reply]

`$emaildata="<h1>Hello World</h1>"; my $msg = MIME::Lite->new ( Subject=>"Hello World", From=>'youremail@yourdomain', To=>'destinationemailid', Type=>'text/html', Data=>$emaildata, ); MIME::Lite->send('smtp',"localhost:25",Debug=>0,Timeout=>60); $msg->send();` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

Hi, Both of these scenaria are dealt with in the Mail::Sender docs. Raed carefully and then it's pretty much copy and paste. I like this module, it does everything I need, and is well documented. J.C.	[reply]
