I believe the problem you're having is that a PPD file for Net::SMTP does not exist (anywhere).
<P>Have you tried installing using the CPAN shell? I find it much more reliable, if you have the appropriate MAKE utility (probably [nmake]).
<P> It comes standard with ActiveState's distribution. Here's the command line:
<P><CODE>
>perl -MCPAN -e shell
</CODE>
<P>It will ask you lots of questions to begin with, but once they're answered it should be configured properly going forward.
<P>After you get it configured, try the following:
<CODE>
>install Net::SMTP
</CODE>
If there are any more problems after that, there is ample documentation for the CPAN module at <CODE>perldoc CPAN </CODE> or here at the Monastery.
<P>Hope this helps!
<P>MM
