Oh, I indeed did what you'll just told me to do:
1. I first downloaded this MailTools-1.67.tar.gz
2. ungziped it
3. cd MailTools-1.67
4. Moreed Readme, followed the instructions, until the last step, "make install" failed, still lots of files including a lib/ were generated.

Are you on Unix? I'm assuming you are.

You need to run "make install" as root. If you don't have root access, you need to read the following:

   perldoc -q 'How do I keep my own module/library directory?'

I am just perl beginner and doing bioperl most of time and it would cost me 6 months at least to read the Camel book. Then I would understand what the modules really are saying. I don't believe anyone cares how the modules are coded, just trying to get them to work in your script. That's exactly what I am doing. And no, it didn't work. help me and tell me what I did was wrong. Tell you the truth, I don't understand how the Mail::Send is coded, nor I believe many of people in this list do, nor anyone in this list cares how Mail::Send is coded.

What you're doing wrong is failing to learn how to properly install modules. You'll save yourself a lot of headaches if you get this process down pat.
