I would suggest looking into the Email set of modules, e.g. Email::Simple.

As far as security is concerned, try something like an email address
confirmation with user authentication. I think that's the most common approach.

For example, require the user confirms their email address as a part of user authentication before they're allowed to email. That will keep spam bots out. If you only have a limited user base, you could skip the email confirmation and just keep a flat file or database
records of allowed users.

I have a client who wants to send email from a flash script (do you call flash stuff scripts?), and he has asked me to install sendmail.php for him. I don't want to! Can anyone here recommend a modperl (or just plain perl) equivalent that I can lock down so it is less likely to be used as a spam delivery agent?

Thanks!
