At first, I thought this might solve it, but it's some problem within the external Perl script when called from a shell within a cron environment. It seems to have to do with paths, but it's beyond my reach, maybe a call to a Perl library. In the end, I solved this by starting the mail transfer not from a shell within the Gambas program but afterwards. The sendEmail Perl script then runs on its own, called by a bash script, and reads the data from a list the Gambas program has prepared beforehand. Calling myProgram.Gambas && myMailScript runs flawlessly. It's just a shame I didn't get the Gambas SMTP client to work, it would have made things a lot easier.
