-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA512

Hello Everyone,

I've been trying to write a /very/ simple script that will email a
binary file to an email address when run. Pretty simple. I've done
quite a bit of research and have finally settled on the following code:

http://pastebin.com/sryj98wW

For some reason though, sending mail is failing every time. I've made
sure that the password is correct (which seems to be the most usual
error).

Still, I just can't get it to work. Can someone take a look at this
code and give me some advice?

Thanks!
Anthony
