Can somebody give me pointers to basic information on sending mail from within Perl. I just want to send a brief string as the content of a message when my program runs. I downloaded Mail Tools 1.06 and it's damned complicated for a beginner to understand, and seems to have a lot more than I need!. Perhaps someone could give me some pointers to a tutorial or explain the basics. Thanks. ** Russell Aminzade - Computing As If People Matter - 802-351-4357 aminzade@sover.net**
