I have an application that spits out emails to a directory and stores them in BSMTP format like so:

HELO server.domain.com
MAIL FROM:<dmabe@domain.com>
RCPT TO:<user@gmail.com>
DATA
Return-Path: <dmabe@domain.com>

Which perl module would you select to send this email using SMTP to a remote server?

Keep in mind the following comments:

• The module must gracefully handle any errors.
• The module must handle the BSMTP format intelligently (e.g. BCCs must work properly).
• The module must be able to run on Linux or Windows without a local sendmail (or sendmail-like) engine
• Net::SMTP may be the best answer, but I'd rather use a module that has already implemented all the error handling that's required so I don't have to.
• I'm stuck with the general architecture that I've described above - I can't change the application to use a different format.

Edit by castaway, swap pre tags for code tags, to help wrapping
