When I used perl on Windows, I used Mail:sender module to send emails, with attachments.
Now I realized that Mac OS X doesn't have this installed (I installed it on Windows myself)

Do you use sendmail to send emails in your perl tools? Or use a Perl email module to send emails? Which way you prefer?
I use MIME::Lite. I let it use its default settings for sending, which is to use the local sendmail. This does, of course, require that you have set up sendmail correctly, which is a gigantic pain in the backside. You might like to use exim or postfix instead.
