in reply to email attachments using multipart MIME format

You arent passing parameters around so its hard to see the actual code flow. Im betting its because $tmp2 isnt assigned a variable when &email is called. (Although the error message is on the face of it a bit confusing.) Ill look at making MIME::Lite a little more intelligent in this regard. But you might consider turning on strict and warnings. By the time you have cleaned up your code enough to make Perl stop whining I suspect this matter will be resolved. :-)

Gentlemen and ladies, this newest leaked memo from Microsoft confirms that we are advancing through GandhiCon Three.

    I've managed to fix the problem, basically my checks to see whether the files existed weren't working properly, I've changed it to a simpler 
    if (-e $tmp)  {
            $picfilename = "".$AGENT."-".$AGENTid.".jpg"; print ("$pic
+filename\n");
            $msg->attach(
                Type     => 'image file/jpg',
                           Path     => $tmp,
                           Filename => $picfilename,
                           Disposition => 'attachment');
        }

    I've also altered where it creates the extra parts to the e-mail, so for each property it creates an e-mail, adds each part in the loop if the file exists and then sends the e-mail. Thanks very much for your help, I'm glad I managed to find the monks, especially after the amount of times I've been getting stuck in my learning recently!
