Hi,

Thanks for your code.

Sorry for not mentioning the OS . I use linux ubuntu- 12.04.

Before trying this code, I just wanted to learn how to configure my mail server in linux , before running the code. I just tried the following code by doing the configuration as given in the CPAN documentation of Mail::Sendmail module.
#! /usr/bin/perl -w use Mail::Sendmail; use Mail::Sendmail qw(sendmail %mailcfg); $mail{smtp} = qw(imap.googlemail.com); $mail{port} = 993; %mail = ( To => 'xxx@gmail.com', From => 'yyy@gmail.com', Message => 'This is a very short message' ); if ( sendmail(%mail) ) { print "OK.\n"; } else { die $Mail::Sendmail::error; } print "OK. Log says:\n", $Mail::Sendmail::log;
Upon running this code, process continuously runs without any result.....What might be the problem with this code.?
