I tried Email::Send::SMTP::Gmail from Ubuntu 16.04, and it worked after some tweaking. First I needed to change the layer from the default tls to ssl, then the port from the default 25 to 465. After that, I needed to change my gmail account settings to allow access for less secure apps. See this post http://stackoverflow.com/a/33244509/2173773 for more information.
use strict;
use warnings;
use Email::Send::SMTP::Gmail;
my ($mail,$error) = Email::Send::SMTP::Gmail->new(
-layer =>'ssl',
-port =>'465',
-smtp =>'smtp.gmail.com',
-login =>'hakon.hagland@gmail.com',
-pass =>'?????'
);
die "session error: $error" if $mail ==-1;
$mail->send(
-to =>'hakon.hagland@gmail.com',
-subject =>'Hello!',
-body =>'Just testing it',
-attachments=>'test.pdf'
);
$mail->bye;

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
