in thread Problems sending an email attachment using Net::SMTP

Why is it that whenever someone says they need to use core modules someone always suggests a non-core module?

      Anyone who has worked at a large corporation long enough learns to choose their battles and this program isn't the right one and even if it was it isn't the right time. That's why I posted what my requirements/constraints are. For new monks I can see passing on the CPAN info, but for experienced members maybe, just maybe, you should give them the benefit of the doubt?

        I'm not questioning your experience, nor module-fu, but you won't be the only reader of this thread, today, tomorrow or....

        And when Monks have given my knowledge 'the benefit of the doubt,' I've had the regretable experience of continuing to stumble over blind spots.

        So, though this may not be an option for your, an observation for future readers: the referenced thread points out that, among other things, in many restrictive environments, it's possible -- as a workaround -- to copy paste the source of a pure-Perl module into your own script. Mail::Sender is such a module.
