Note that, although he's posted to the CGI list, he's asking about email. In this case you've stuck on a lovely C-T: header (missing an extra newline, though) as though you were spitting out to a web page, but that's not what he's doing. What he *wants* is to output something like To: ... From: ... Subject: ... Content-Type: multipart/related; boundary="HTML-email-is-really-bad" This is a MIME message. Only a really cool mailreader can see this. --HTML-email-is-really-bad Content-Type: text/html; Here is your <bold>freakin'</bold> HTML mail. --HTML-email-is-really-bad which properly describes the message body in the headers, leaves a blank line to identify the header end and the body begin, and then lays out the body pieces. No, I don't know how to write it in perl. I think I'd feel dirty if I did; this is bad enough ;-) I'm sure there's a module, though.
