Hi Ajit,

    This post for help with Mail::Sender package ... seems to have
    gone unanswered for sometime now ... unless I've
    missed a post and/or someone has replied directly 
    to you missing the list ...

    Anyway, this is exactly the kind of PERL application that
    gives Integrity to this open source tool as being
    High Level ... using it in this fashion at least to
    send email based on user defined conditions is critical
    to Chaining technoligies and Automated processes ...

    So, needing something like this myself ... KINTANA wouldn't
    do it ... (very expensive application though)
    I don't mind working thru this with you.

    Firstly,  the code snippet you provided looks to be verbatim
    from the example in Jenda Krynicky's help file on the Sender.pm
    module she has written. You've made the custom changes to the
    from and to email addresses and that looks OK,

    From my own experience, I started with the same plan ... however,
    I needed to add the following line to tell the ActiveState perl
installation 
    the source directory I'm using to look for the Sender.pm 

    I used something like this:

    BEGIN {unshift(@INC, "./Mail");}

    # Each entry in the @INC array is a directory that Perl searches to
locate the module.
    # Adding a BEGIN statement to the code updates the @INC array.

    Additionaly, check the smtp server your using .... and make sure you're
connected 
    and on-line ...

    Give this a try and good luck
