many thanks for you're assistance Brian,

I've removed the '\n' from the code and the date stuff so I am 1 step 
closer to what I want.

_BUT_ I don't have any subject line!!

it's still this....

[ No Subject ]
...
From: "dave.xxx@isp.com" <dave.xxx@isp.com>
...
View Contact
To:

      test message...

I only put the date stuff in from looking at my original program.

Any further advice?  module is now this (using heredoc now too).

require 'net/smtp'

module Sendemail    # edited

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

    msg = "From: #{from}
    To: #{to}
    Subject: #{subject}

    #{message}"


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

  end
end

Will keep on trying other things and googling.
