Hi Paul,
I have used Mail::Sender with good success with attachments. Sample code snipet from
an NT install follows. The entire program created a spreadsheet of SMTP stats through
Spreadsheet::WriteExcel and this portion mailed off the completed .xls file on the 1st
of every month.
@MailMe = grep !-d, glob "c:/smtp/stats/*.xls";
ref ($sender = new Mail::Sender({from => '[EMAIL PROTECTED]',
smtp => '192.168.0.15'})) or die "$Mail::Sender::Error\n";
(ref ($sender->MailFile(
{to =>'[EMAIL PROTECTED]', cc =>'[EMAIL PROTECTED]', sub
ject => 'SMTP Stats for last month',
msg => "Hello!\nThis email was generated from your SMTP server!\nI have
compiled and archived all of the email stats for $mth-$yr and attached the resu
lts file.\n \n \n \nThis message was sent at $now[2]:$now[1] on $mth/$day/$yr.",
file => \@MailMe
}))
and print "Mail sent OK."
)
or die "$Mail::Sender::Error\n: $!";
I have used it on *nix boxes as well. HTH.
Later!

I did check cpan and there where many email modules. So I thought I
would ask the collective and see which ones people like to use.
NET::SMTP seem like it would work but I don't see how you would send
attachments.
