in reply to [Resolved]Email::Mime 1 email + multiple attachments

recipient will not receive 1 e-mail with 3 attachments, but 3 e-mails with 1 attachment in each e-mail

That's not too surprising, as your foreach loop is around everything.  Instead, create the list of attachments first, and then create one email to which you pass the list of attachments (@parts). I.e. 

...
my @parts;
foreach (@files) {
    push @parts, Email::MIME->create(   # attachments
                     ...
                 );
}
$email = Email::MIME->create(           # actual email
    ...
    parts      => [ @parts ],
    ...
);
...

    I've done so before asking, sorry I forgot to mention about this. If I'm trying to access @parts not in "foreach" @parts are empty. Like yesterday:

      If I'm trying to access @parts not in "foreach" @parts are empty.

      You don't show the updated code, but my guess would be that you still have my @parts = ... within the foreach loop (like in your OP), instead of declaring the @parts array outside of the loop (like in the code I outlined).

      If you declare it within the loop, it's lexically scoped to the loop, i.e. not accessible outside of it.  Also, you'd create a new array instance on every iteration, instead of accumulating stuff in it.

      Sorry Eliya, this was my bad. It's true that I tried to use "@parts" outside foreach, BUT I used "@parts =" instead of "push" and this was main problem. You were absolutely right when you wrote your reply to me. Thank you very much.
