Are you sure you aren't behind a proxy? When you download a tarball manually from CPAN, does it build successfully?

    Yes - there is a proxy and I have asked several people for help to get around the problem ... without any success. Since I do seem to be able to get at the CPAN repository using a chrome browser (I can get http://cpan.strawberryperl.com/authors/01mailrc.txt.gz) - can someone explain how to get what I need using the browser? (I need Mail:Sendmail.) Ron.

      find your module, goto http://search.cpan.org/ put Mail::Sendmail into first box, select Modules from "in" dropdown, press search
      click on module you want, then look for "Download:" link on right.
