Many use Net::SMTP_auth if authentication is needed , and MIME::Lite is very good for attachments of all sorts. The 2 modules are often used in combination like this ( no auth shown here, but google for other code examples): 
#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;
use MIME::Lite;
use Net::SMTP;

my $smtp = Net::SMTP ->new('yourmail.server');

#identify yourself to the server
$smtp->mail('you@yourdomain');

$smtp->to('zentara@foobar.org');
$smtp->data( );

my $msg = MIME::Lite->new(
                 From     =>'Joe',
                 To       =>'Shmoe',
                 Subject  =>'HTML Test',
                 Type    =>'multipart/related',
                 );

 $msg->attach(
               Type    => 'text/plain',
               Data => 'HERE IS YOUR HTML PAGE',
                );


 $msg->attach(
       Type    => 'text/html',
       Path   =>'path_to_full_file_name',
       Disposition => 'attachment',
  );

# send the message over
$smtp->datasend( $msg->as_string() );

# close smtp connection
$smtp->dataend();
$smtp->quit;
