I've had much success using MIME::Lite which works with sendmail and smtp.	[reply]

I second that suggestion. MIME::Lite is relatively easy to use and quite powerful. "What should it profit a man, if he should win a flame war, yet lose his cool?"	[reply]

So do I need to install some thins else or it will just work like unix	[reply]

If you have sendmail installed, it'll work just like unix. If you don't have sendmail installed, I suggest you don't try to install it yourself, but use one of the many available mailer modules on CPAN that don't depend on sendmail, like for instance Mail::Sendmail.

Another option, if you have access to a SMTP server is to use Net::SMTP (SMTP may even be running as a service on the local machine, in which case, you just use the local machine to send mail).	[reply]

Please don't change your post, for the comments make no sense any more. For those interested: the original post -- b10m All code is usually tested, but rarely trusted.	[reply]
