Thanks I found the Mail-Sendmail and the Mail-Sender packages. I went through the instructions to install the Mail-Sendmail package using the Command Prompt. After trying to install the package the Command Prompt gave me the following message:

 

Error installing package '<Mail-Sendmail >': Could not locate a PPD file for package <Mail-Sendmail >

 

I went to the PPM repository and downloaded the Mail-Sendmail.ppd. What directory do I store the Mail-Sendmail.ppd so it can be found during installation? I initially stored it in the Perl root however, I received the same error when I tried to install the Mail-Sendmail package.

 

Thanks again!

As someone else noted Mail-Sendmail is available as well.
Both work fine, but use Mail-Sender if you need to add
attachments to your email.

Sendmail is on unix. You can however download a perl module to send
email via SMTP. The module is available from the ActiveState repository
using ppm. Try this command:

ppm install mail-sender

from your dos command prompt. Then read the docs for sample code.

I am new to Perl CGI Script and installed ActivePerl to my NT machine
last week.
I would like to send two automatic e-mails out after the user clicks the

submit button. In my readings I understand that I need SENDMAIL on my
box. Should ActivPerl installed this on my machine? I have searched the
drive where I installed ActivePerl and SENDMAIL has not been found.

Thanks,

Sheri
