        My bad, next time I'll check out the readme.

        If you have an SMTP server that's available for relaying from
your host, I'd go for Mail::Sendmail because it seems like a simple
interface.

        Naw, Linux and FreeBSD are extremely quick at forking.

        Standard pipe is probably okay for your site.  Unless you've
got a load of .40 or higher, I wouldn't worry about this (and .4 is
probably even little low to be worrying about this).

Motto:

        Get it done.  If there's a problem, fix it later.  Don't
prevent yourself from fixing a problem if one arrises.
