Email::Send::Sendmail (again) problem

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

And I continue to struggle ;-) .. According to manual this is how I pass extra arguments to Sendmail:

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;

use Email::Simple;
use Email::Simple::Creator;
use Email::Send;

my $email_raw = Email::Simple->create(
        header => [
                From    => 'x@x.org',
                To      => 'y@y.org',
                Subject => 'z'
        ],
        body => 'a',
);

# send it
my $sender = Email::Send->new({mailer => 'Sendmail'});
$sender->send($email_raw, '--extra-arg');

Unfortunately, no matter how I try that --extra-arg just get lost somewhere in the middle and never reaches Sendmail.pm send function. Am I missing something here? Please.

According to manual this is how I pass extra arguments to Sendmail: Again, it doesn't say that at all. What it actually says is: Any remaining arguments will be passed directly into your defined `message_modifier` You neither defined a `message_modifer`, nor would it help if you did. Unfortunately, no matter how I try that `--extra-arg` just get lost somewhere in the middle and never reaches Sendmail.pm `send` function. Nor should it reach Sendmail's `send`. I think `mailer_args` will do the trick, though.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Da! This is the moment where epiphany strikes. Think I've been staring at `Email::Send::Sendmail`'s manual for too long seeing only _{"Any arguments passed to send will be passed to sendmail. The -t -oi arguments are sent automatically"} Anyway thank you very much. You should have a donate page, buy me a pizza/beer style ;-) You always come first with answers.	[reply] [d/l]
