1. Please do not top-post. 2. Please read the message you reply to! I did not ask, I was replying to M.Hall. HE was having problems. And he tried Net::SMTP and Mail::Sender modules that are NOT dependent on sendmail executable being available. You are right though that he needs an SMTP server. But it doesn't have to be on the same computer as the script. 3. Krynicky is my last name. I don't know if it's the same in English, but in Czech using the last name only without anything else sounds a bit rude. Call me Jenda, please.
