Hi everyone,

(thanks for your tips, Scot).

I managed to get my script working.
It sends a HTML mail via MIME::Lite, with a.txt attachment. All mail 
clients I tested worked just fine.
The only problem is Hotmail.com!!
Hotmail.com neither displays the HTML mail, nor am I able to download 
the txt attachment. Hotmail.com tells me, there is a virus in the txt 
attachment...... ???
Hotmail.com does display plain text messages.....

I got no idea what to do or how to solve it.
(RIght now I`m using a little sub checking whether it's a hotmail 
address and sending only plain text to hotmail, while sending  html to 
all others....)

Does anyone have an idea how to solve that problem?


Thanks for your help,

Sven
