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!
