RE: Subject header and Mail::Mailer module (Perl)

BINGO!!!!!!!!!

Thank you VERY much. You're a genius. (Well, OK, maybe
I exaggerate but only slightly) In my density I failed
to understand about the command argument and that it's
obligatory if you want a proper subject header.

Although them CPAN docs are a wee bit on the terse
side, aren't they.

And thanks to all who helped out. You guys are top
shelf.
