Okay I am officially stumped!!!

output from my current code looks like this (from my client inbox, yahoo
and gmail.


[ No Subject ]    From dave.xxxx@isp.com



    To: xxx@yahoo.com

    Subject: test

    Date: Wed Aug 04 22:37:47 +1200 2010

    Message-Id: Wed Aug 04 22:37:47 +1200 2010

    This is a test   <<< Just want to see this

I want it to look as if the email was sent by a client email program
(note i use Linux for development but don't know if this will be the end
OS, I'd like it to be).

code I currently use is (and if I change it to a class I get NO
CHANGE!!) ...

require 'net/smtp'

module Sendemail

  def send_email(from, to, subject, message) # edited

    msg = "From: #{from}\n
    To: #{to}\n
    Subject: #{subject}\n
    Date: #{Time.now}\n
    Message-Id: #{Time.now}\n\n\n

    #{message}"


    Net::SMTP.start('smtp.isp.com',25) do |smtp|
      smtp.send_message(msg, from, to)
    end

  end
end

And if i use the parameter message instead of msg I still don't get teh
subject to appear, so this fixes 1 problem but not the other.

Okay USE PONY well this is the output - NO DIFFERENCE.

      This is a test

this is the code used for pony as you can see not a lot of difference to
my hand crafted code (but I did hope).

 require 'pony'

 module Sendemail
   def send_email(from, to, subject, msg)
     Pony.mail(:to => "#{to}", :from => "#{from}", :subject =>
"#{subject}", :body => "#{msg}", :via => :smtp, :via_options => {
     :address => 'smtp.isp.com',
     :port => '25'})
   end
 end

Now I've tried using authentication and password but this changes
nothing!!!

changing both bits of code to a class does nothing! using esmtp does
nothing too.

you're help would be apprec

taking the NET::SMTP piece of code into my calling program changes
nothing!!!.

how can I simply get to appear what you would see if you used you're
client email program? namely from
