Mail::Sender's one problem is its a bit cumbersome to use, with so many options and things to open, close, the whole thing, parts, multiparts etc etc., and several ways to check for successs. Its hard to remember what needs done at what point with what data to do what you want and then which way you check what data based on what was done to see if it worked or not. This module's aim is to make all of that ``Easy'' It does so by providing a single function (and method) to send mail based on an (IMHO) easier to work with hashref and returns true or false on success or failer and sets $@ to any errors. The EXAMPLE section shows an ``email or die'' that will send an email using SMTP Auth on port 26 with text and html parts, the html part has a smiley gif embedded inline and a PDF attached and a high priority flag and read and delivery receipt requests. It will take you seconds to customize it to send that to yourself (and its ``Easy'' to understand what its going on without having to understand the intracacies of SMTP and MIME messages.
