look up mime or whatever package your looking for... in this case mime
its simple easy and if you have a browser you can get to it.
it will return a list of MIME packages or packages that match the criteria 'mime'...
here you will notice the MIME::Lite package, and yep it is uppercase and the command is case sensitive
use the syntax you have said and install the package MIME::Lite
have a read through http://cpan.org and use the tool http://search.cpan.org
this will take care of most of your needs for perl modules information about them etc...

Hi folks,
What will be the correct command to install "Mimi::Lite"?
# perldoc Mime::Lite No documentation found for "Mime::Lite".
