I haven't used the Mail::Mailer module myself. Since you have it installed, you should be able to do "perldoc Mail::Mailer" to read about it (or lookup the man page at www.cpan.org).

My initial guess would be that its "close" function is not "exported" to your script by default (though this would seem uncooperative); have you tried: 

use Mail::Mailer (qw/close/);

[download]

update: having just looked at the docs on CPAN for Mail::Mailer, it may be that the correct means is: 

use Mail::Mailer qw(mail);

[download]
Though why this should make a difference is beyond me. (This module is not exemplary in its documentation.) Anyway, you could also try just removing the "close" statement -- when the script exits, the mail object is bound to close.
