i recommend using Image::Size instead of the code you had:
use Image::Size qw{ imgsize };
my ($x, $y, $id) = imgsize($fh); # $fh is the handle to your file
my $found = 0;
# include only the image types you're interested in
foreach (qw{ GIF JPG XBM XPM PPM PGM PBM PNG TIF BMP }) {
$found = 1 if $id eq $_;
}
die "unacceptable type" unless $found; # or however you want to exit
# code to put image on server goes here

use MIME::Lite;
my $msg = new MIME::Lite
From => '[EMAIL PROTECTED]',
To => '[EMAIL PROTECTED]',
Subject => qq{Here's your image},
Type => 'TEXT',
'Reply-to' => '[EMAIL PROTECTED]',
Data => qq{Here is the image that was uploaded. Enjoy.};
attach $msg
Type => 'image/jpg', # or whatever image type it is
Encoding => 'base64',
Path => 'image1.jpg'; # assuming that's the image name
$msg->send;
i typed this in without testing it, let me know if it doesn't work.
also, i assumed you weren't having trouble uploading and writing the
image to the server.
