Author send an email using Perl??

Hi all,

How to send an email using Mail::Mailer module.
I want to send a mail to local users using perl.
I downloaded Mail::Mailer module from cpan.org and install on my system. Then written a test program as follows to test:-

code:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w use Mail::Mailer; $from_addr = "test1\@mail.localhost.com."; $to_addr = "test2\@mail.localhost.com."; $subject = "mail testing using perl module"; $body = "just testing"; #$mailer = Mail::Mailer->new("sendmail"); $mailer = Mail::Mailer->new(); $mailer->open({ From => $from_addr, To => $to_addr, Subject => $subject, }) or die "Can't open: $!\n"; print $mailer $body; $mailer->close();




The above code executed without giving any error. After execution the status of Inbox of test2 user doesn't show the mail sent.

Also I can send a mail using GUI -> squiralmail. Using squiralmail I can sent mails to other users.

The same I want to do using Perl module as mentioned.

Please can any one of you solve this problem or any idea to solve

Please reply

Thanx in advance..

regards... zing_foru
