You're missing Mail::Address and the complete set it goes with called MailTools. Also Net::POP3. Both of which I used to write a pre-filtering mail tool (which is hiding somewhere in code catacombs I believe).

As you are running on Windows, Mail::SendMail probably wont be of much use, since it requires a local sendmail installation, I think. Also, since you say you want to check accounts and delete mails, why have you listed mail sending tools at all? Mail::Sender, Mail::SendEasy and Mail::SendMail are all useless to you for your stated goal.

Mail::Box seems to be mostly for handling local mbox or maildir type mailboxes, usually found on unix-like systems. I doubt this would be all that useful on a Windows system.

All you actually need is something to contact your email account(s), like Net::POP3 or Mail::Pop3client, and something to parse the actual mails. ie MailTools.
