Hello,

I written a small script in perl to send email.

Here is the code:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use warnings;
use MIME::Lite;

my $msg = new MIME::Lite
From =>'[EMAIL PROTECTED]',
To =>'[EMAIL PROTECTED]',
Subject =>'test',
Type =>'TEXT',
Data =>'Hello this is a test';
$msg -> send;

I have a .mailrc file :
set sendmail="/root/scripts/nbsmtp.sh"

Perl isn't going to know or care about what is in your .mailrc file.

You should replace

  $msg -> send

with something like

  $msg -> send || die "Could not send: $!"

to at least get some idea of where the send attempt is failing


I installed a small mta nbsmtp and i use a shell script called nbsmtp.sh with this line : /usr/local/bin/nbsmtp -f [EMAIL PROTECTED] -h ssl0.ovh.net -d elipse -p 465 -U [EMAIL PROTECTED] -P password -M l -s -V

I don't know anything about nbsmtp, but if it sets up an SMTP daemon on localhost then you can use the perl module Mail:Mailer to set up the mailer with something like

  $mailer = new  Mail::Mailer 'smtp', Server => 'localhost' ;

-j
