In the first iteration of your program you are using /usr/bin/sendmail, which is UNIX call, not a Windows call.

I don't see why you would need CGI::Carp because you are not using CGI to send Email.

Also, does the d:/perl/lib/auto/Socket/Socket.dll file exist? It says access denied which means to me that you don't have permissions.

This is a simple email script that you can probably get to work if you install Mail-Sendmail on your system. 

use strict;

use Mail::Sendmail;
$Mail::Sendmail::mailcfg{smtp}=['mailhost.yourserver.com']; 

my %mail=
( 
    To=>'herkum@yourserver.com,herkum@perl-example.com',
    From=>'you@perlmonks.org',
    Subject=>'Subject',
    Message=>'Body',
);
Mail::Sendmail::sendmail(%mail) or die "Mail::Sendmail::error: '$Mail:
+:Sendmail::error'";
