1. Install ssmtp from Cygwin. 2. Run /usr/bin/ssmtp-config to configure. 3. If needed edit the config file /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf) and add your mail hub. For example: mailhub=smtp.comcast.net:587 4. In Perl, you use: my $msg = MIME::Lite->new( From => '[EMAIL PROTECTED]', To => '[EMAIL PROTECTED]', Subject => "This is a test", Type => 'AUTO', Encoding => 'base64', Path => $file ); $msg->send('sendmail', '/usr/sbin/ssmtp', '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'); Good luck -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
