I don't have access to a CentOS system, so I won't be able to help you with 
specific details unique to CentOS. However, I do have some questions that might 
help you or allow others to help you better:

1. What version of Perl are you using?
2. How was it installed (i.e., from a source distribution or through some 
CentOS package manager)?
3. How are you attempting to install Email::Sender (from a source distribution 
or a cpan client)?

There are CPAN installation programs that will install required prerequisite 
modules. Are you using one of these? The ones I know about are cpan and cpanm. 
I was able to install Email::Sender version 1.300006 in a Perl 5.12 
installation under Mac OS X with no problem using cpan.

Please post the specific commands you are using to install Email::Sender and 
the error messages you get when it fails.

Have you read the advice here: <http://www.cpan.org/modules/INSTALL.html>, 
which mentions difficulty with RedHat and CentOS systems.

Good luck!
