Subject: UTF-8 support missing (hack workaround provided)
When trying to send UTF-8 content via Net::SMTP v1.19 on Perl 5.8.4 on Linux Redhat (unfortunately, I cannot find out the version we are using), you get the following: Wide character in syswrite at /path/to/perl/lib/Net/Cmd.pm line 436 If, however, you add the following line before you call data or datasend: binmode($smtp_obj, ':utf8'); Things will work. Seems like there should be some sort of parameter that could be set to indicate content was UTF-8 rather than using the above hack.
