Detail

There is a bug when using STARTPUBLISH/STOPPUBLISH that prevents emails from being sent (for me at least). The logic in MailerContrib.pm (using Rev. 19211) assembles the body, headers, and footers into a variable called $tmpl, then chops that down to only what is between the STARTPUBLISH/STOPPUBLISH tags - which wipes out the headers and footers. With no headers, sendmail fails with "No recipient addresses found in message header."

Here is a diff to MailerContrib.pm that moves the split code so that it only applies to the body, not the entire message.
