You could try MIME::Lite.

Arun,

I use MIME::Lite to form the email body before sending.
Here $pagetosend is the whole html page.

-------code snip--------
use MIME::Lite;

### Create the multipart container
my $msg = MIME::Lite->new (
From => $from_address,
To => $to_address,
Subject => $subject,
Type => 'text/html',
Data=> $pagetosend
) or die "Error creating inline email $!\n";
## prep msg for Net:SMTP
my $msg_body = $msg ->as_string();

---- end snip-----
Now you have an encapsulated html page to insert.

so now just

---- snip 2-----
$smtp->data();
$smtp->datasend($msg_body);
$smtp->dataend();
$smtp->quit();
---- end snip 2 -----

Now this has been working for me for a long time using Net::SMTP.

Hope it helps,

Mike
