My bad,
You do not need command line access!
I should have read more.

I just need to get this puppy working is all.
Php should be able to do this by it's self!

You should not have a mime boundary in your headers. Why not use 
PHPMailer? All this (apparently) complicated stuff is already 
implemented for you. Either that or spend a few days learning about the 
structure of emails by following the links Daniel Brown sent you a few 
emails ago.

PHPMailer can be found here: http://phpmailer.sf.net/
