Hey there

ive always used Mail::Sender

mostly cuz it does attachements too :)

i was pleasantly surprised one day when i needed to do an
html mailout and Mail::Sender could handle this:

use Mail::Sender;

sub mail {
    my $sender;
    my $return = "";
    $sender = new Mail::Sender(
        {
            from => 'dot@bomb.com',
            smtp => 'dot@bomb.com'
        }
    ) or $return = "$Mail::Sender::Error\n";
 
    $sender->MailMsg(
        {
            to      => $_[0],
            subject => $_[2],
            bcc     =>'dot@bomb.com',
            msg   => $_[1],
            ctype => 'text/html',
        }
    ) or $return = "$Mail::Sender::Error\n";

    return "$return";
