Re: mod_perl/Apache troubles with cell phone

I bet Tom is on the right track about needing to set Content-type
correctly, I have run into problems sending to certain text messaging
systems because of that.  I'd suggest using telnet (or curl or GET or
whatever) to see what headers are being sent with the static content that
successfully reaches the phone, then make sure you set the same with your
mod_perl content.
