Lacking any problems with the code, does anybody have any ideas about
what may be stopping this from working?
The code looks fine. There could be the following problems:
- If you have the SMTP server locally, it doesn't require authentication,
or
- The username should not be t...@mgssub.com but only tfrg, or
- The server requires SSL encryption (like Gmail's SMTP server), or
- the message is sent by it reaches in the SPAM folder.
Is there no way to have the module report the nature of the problem?

I've tried to see if I can make it report the problems, but I couldn't do
it.
The module uses Mail::Builder which uses Email::Send, and Email::Send
doesn't report too many things.
I've seen that the maintainer of Email::Send is developing a new module
named Email::Sender, because he considers that Email::Send has some bugs,
however until that new module will be ready... I need to use Email::Send,
because it allows sending in many ways, using SMTP, Sendmail, Qmail, Google
and a few others.
It is pretty strange that even though Perl is great, there is no "great"
module for sending email that can do at least what Outlook Express can do
under Windows, that doesn't have errors, work with SMTP over TLS, SSL and
other ways of sending email.
If somebody knows a better module for sending email, please tell us.
