Hi,

I want a file from an server (linux) sended to me automaticly by mail.
Therefore I want to
make a Perl-script that uses "sendmail", to send me the file. But I
don't know how to
attach a file whitin the mail using sendmail.

QUESTION :
How can I attach a file to a mail-message using a Perl script under
linux. I know how to
send a mail (see below), but I don't know how to attatch an file. If you
know how to do
it, I would be glad to hear from you.

Thanks in advance,

Thomas de Konink
mailto:tkonink@horizon.nl

PS: As far as I am:

  open(MAIL, "|/usr/lib/sendmail tkonink@horizon.nl");
  print MAIL "Reply-to: $in{'email'} ($in{'naam'})\n";
  print MAIL "Subject: Aanmelding Email Lijst\n";
  print MAIL "Datum   : $date1  Tijd: $time1 \n\n";
  print MAIL "E-mail adres: $in{'email'} \n\n";
  print MAIL "Remote IP address: $ENV{'REMOTE_ADDR'}\n";
  close(MAIL);
