Hi.
I'm sending an HTML email using PERL (routine below).
in this case, it's on a PERL 5 and T64 3.2c, I don't think the
t64 being old has anything to do with it, as it also does it
on a Redhat 7.2 system with PERL 5.
Apparantly x # of bytes into the email, something is inserting
an "!" in the middle of the email. It's not the HTML coding, as
if I add or remove characters, the ! doesn't follow, it stays in
the same offset spot.
Has anyone had this occur before? Aside from trying to shift the
email so the ! falls in an appropriate spot :) any ideas on how to
fix (stop) this?
I've tried breaking up the HTML coding into many lines of prints
so each line of print is no more than 70 characters. The ! gets
put in the email, whether I use one line of 600 or so bytes or
8 or 9 lines of 70 character maximums.
I did a view source on the original HTML, then cut and pasted the
HTML from the view into the email below. Aside from the ! the
email looks identicle.
Any ideas?
Thanks
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
use CGI qw/:standard/;
my $PID = $$;
my $ml_pgm = '/usr/sbin/sendmail';
my $ml_to = 'ggallen@slackinc.com';
open (MAIL,"|$ml_pgm $ml_to") or die "Sendmail $ml_pgm $ml_to would not open
:$ \n";
print MAIL "To: $ml_to\n";
print MAIL "From: webmaster\@return.com <webmaster\@return.com>\n";
print MAIL "Subject: This is an HTML test\n";
print MAIL "MIME-Version: 1.0\n";
print MAIL "Content-Type: text/html; charset=us-ascii\n\n";
print MAIL ".......HTML CODING.....";
close MAIL or die "Sendmail would not close :$\n";
