Problem with perl2exe

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

Hi Monks, Good Morning to all.I am using perl2exe for converting pl to exe files.The problem that i encountered now is pretty different.I am trying to convert script(for sending mail with attachment) into exe using perl2exe.But after converting i am getting error like Cannot find SASL connection library at PERL2EXE_STORAGE/NET/SMTP.pm. Here is the script that i created

use warnings;
use strict;
use MIME::Lite;


our $user = "username\@yahoo.in";    
our $pass = "password";

our $attachmentname=$ARGV[0];

our $to = "username\@yahoo.in";
our $from = "username\@yahoo.in";
our $subject = "Hi buddy";
our $message = "Here is the attachment";

emailToSend($to, $from, $subject, $message);

sub emailToSend
{
 local ($to, $from, $subject, $message) = @_;
 my $msg = MIME::Lite->new(
  From => $from,
  To => $to,
  Subject => $subject,
  Data => $message
 );
    $msg->attach(Type => 'image/gif',
                 Id   => 'GDIPlus_Image.gif',
                 Path => 'images.zip',
                 );

 MIME::Lite->send('smtp', 'smtp.mail.yahoo.com:25', Timeout => 30,
 AuthUser=>$user, AuthPass=>$pass);
 $msg->send();
}

Perhaps perl2exe isn't packaging Net::SMTP, you may have to add this module specifically. I've never used perl2exe, I use PAR, but this is covered in the documentation. Regarding PAR and its availability on ppm see A guide to installing modules for Win32 and PPM::Repositories Martin	[reply]

The error message comes directly from Net::SMTP, it is complaining it can't find any plugins like Authen::SASL::Perl::GSSAPI, probably because they aren't included by perl2exe.	[reply]

But there is no Authen::SASL::Perl::GSSAPI included in authen-sasl v.2.12 and usage of: use Authen::SASL::Perl::GSSAPI; is giving an error before compilation...	[reply]

You need to add something like `use Authen::SASL::Perl::ANONYMOUS; use Authen::SASL::Perl::CRAM_MD5; use Authen::SASL::Perl::DIGEST_MD5; use Authen::SASL::Perl::EXTERNAL; use Authen::SASL::Perl::GSSAPI; use Authen::SASL::Perl::LOGIN; use Authen::SASL::Perl::PLAIN;` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
