1.  Use MacPerl 5.1.5r4.

2.  MacPerl 5.1.5r4 comes with a version of libnet specially for MacPerl.

3.  Get MailTools from Paul Schinder's site.  It is modified for MacPerl
(read the README for more info).

        ftp://mors.gsfc.nasa.gov/pub/MacPerl/

4.  You do not use Makefiles with MacPerl, in general.  Read my chapter on
Modules and MacPerl at the web site below for more information on
installing modules in MacPerl.  And please give feedback on the chapter;
the book is currently in production and we are looking for any and all
feedback on it, so we are making it publically available as we go.

Hope this helps,
