    If you have cpanm installed, you can also try:

    cpanm Mail::Mailer

    If you tell me, I'll forget.
    If you show me, I'll remember.
    if you involve me, I'll understand.

      cpanm can take direct http path of module bunch and as we know that it is coming under MailTools. So try below.

      cpanm http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/M/MA/MARKOV/MailTools-2.1 +2.tar.gz

    Try this
    ppm install Mail-Mailer
    May I know which Perl you are using ?
