You have to make sure to include the appropriate content type.
open (MAIL, "|/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -oi") || die "Can't fork for
sendmail:$!\n";
print MAIL <<EOF;
From: from_email_address
To: to_email_address
Content-Type: text/html; charset=us-ascii

close(MAIL) || warn "sendmail didn't close nicely\n";

Subject: How can I send an HTML format email using send mail
Does anyone know how to send an HTML formatted email using sendmail. I
can
send plain text email OK. If I format the message using HTML the
message
shows the HTML tags. I can't find any information regarding this on
cpan.
Are there any other modules that have this capability? Any help is
greatly
appreciated.
Jeff
