Re^3: Error upon "send()" with MIME::Lite (help please)

The MIME::Lite documentation for ->send specifically says:

... Or, for non-Unix users:
    MIME::Lite->send("smtp");
[download]

Your code looks nothing like the documentation. It seems to me you are not on a unixish system, so maybe it would be a solution to use what the documentation says?

I do have a win32 system (I think I mentioned it before). but actually the documentation also says `On Win32 systems the default setting is equivalent to: MIME::Lite->send("smtp");` [download] so... ? Anyway just so I won't skip any possibility, I tried to sub the `MIME::Lite->send('sendmail', 'C:\\xampp\xampplite\sendmail\sendmail.exe');` line for `MIME::Lite->send('smtp','C:\\xampp\xampplite\sendmail\sendmail.exe');` making it die saying: `SMTP Failed to connect to mail server: Invalid argument` The same goes when I try `MIME::Lite->send('smtp','sendmail','C:\\xampp\xampplite\sendmail\sendmail.exe');` So just to be safe I even tried `MIME::Lite->send('smtp');` which dies saying `class method send must have HOW... arguments` I have no idea whats the problem. Also I find my code exactly like in the documentation as it is a copy/paste of it with the from/to strings changed. If you find my code that off-base, please tell me how to fix it.

I have no idea whats the problem. Why? Try some flavor of `### use Net:SMTP to do the sending $msg->send('smtp','some.host', Debug=>1 );` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
