"MIME::Lite is not recommended by its current maintainer. There are a number of alternatives, like Email::MIME or MIME::Entity..."

I'll risk being the heretic here, but I still use MIME::Lite in spite of the caveat above. I just works and over the last bunch of years (don't remember when I started using it) I've written dozens of script using it. I suppose I should look at the more "modern" CPAN modules out there but I'm lazy.. :-)
