use strict;
use Mail::Sender;

#create mail and send attached a file if you want
$sender = new Mail::Sender{
               smtp => 'smtp_server_of_your_mail',
               from => 'my_name@whatever.com'
              };
$sender->MailFile({
           to => 'name@whatever.com',
           subject => 'Hello....',
           msg => "The attached file i've been trying to send....hmmm"
