Most on this list will agree sendmail is one of the Internet's first "killer apps". But because interfacing directly with the sendmail binary can be confusing and bug prone there are modules on the CPAN that use sendmail as the transport mechanism. These modules abstract sendmail's intricacies from the user, providing a simple API to send mail. Therefore, modules are the preferred way to send mail from a perl program.
