Hey, I was wondering if there is a way to attach files (specifically .csv files) to a mail message in Perl without using MIME::Lite or any other libraries.

Right now, I have a 'mailer function' that works fine, but I'm not sure how to adapt it into attaching files. Here is what I have:

open(MAIL, "|/usr/sbin/sendmail -t");
print MAIL "To: cheese\@yahoo.com\n";
print MAIL "From: queso\@what.com\n";
print MAIL "Subject: Attached is $filename\n\n";
print MAIL "$message";
close(MAIL);

I think this is specific for UNIX.
