Re^2: printing output of a perl script to the Email body

Like Corion, I would use MIME::Lite but...

The documentation warns:
"MIME::Lite is not recommended by its current maintainer."

For that reason, I started looking at alternatives but didn't really get very far - mainly because of familiarity with the easy to use MIME:Lite module.

Yes, it's not recommended by its maintainer, but it still works very well, and I haven't encountered a case where I had to investigate a different module. Also, the module won't be going anywhere and gets a release from time to time. The issues with patches are somewhat likely to be worked on.	[reply]

Given your endorsement, I shall give up that search as I find MIME::Lite a very useful module that does most things I ever want with email.	[reply]

For that reason, I started looking at alternatives but didn't really get very far I can recommend the `Email::*` modules by RJBS, e.g. Email::Simple, Email::MIME, or Email::Stuffer.	[reply] [d/l]

Task::Kensho has some recommendations. In addition to these I am a long-time user of Mail::Sendmail for simple sending. 🦛	[reply]
