Subject: RE: email on win32
I had been thinking about installing Mail::Mailer on my system, and ater
reading your post I went ahead and tried it.
If you do 'search Mail' you'll see a listing of all the modules which
contain 'Mail' in their titles, and Mail::Mailer is not one of them.
an earlier post suggested using 'Mail::Sender' though, so maybe that would
be an easier route to take?
