There is a whole category on CPAN for this: http://search.cpan.org/modlist/Mail_and_Usenet_News/Mail Some I have used with success include, Mail::Mailer MIME::Lite Mail::Sendmail Mail::Message (part of Mail::Box, incredibly complex but beyond feature rich) This list is not intended to be exhaustive or in any particular order, I would suggest having a look at the docs for the various modules and see which ones meet your criteria of complexity and which one you find simplest. http://danconia.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
