emailing an attachment

[sheri]

Greetings,

I'm looking for some help sending an e-mail attachment via a perl CGI.
I'm an experienced programmer, but a Perl moron.

Previous working e-mail samples in my department use Mail::Mailer to
send email. However, so far, I cannot find a way to send an
attachment using this. Am I missing something?

If I cannot send an attachment using the Mailer module, what is the
simplest method to pursue? I have tried SMTP and MIMELite with no
success. My lack of success is primarily dependent on my lack of
knowledge. However, I am also battling differing Perl environments in
test/production/development pc, unfamiliarity with the mail
server...there are just so many areas where I could be going wrong.

So. If you were as clueless as I am, where would you start to send an
e-mail attachment? Even a module name will help me in the right
direction. Thanks in advance for any help out there.

Cheers!
Sheri

Mail::Sender is a module whose explicit purpose is to send mails with
attachments:
