Re: email on WIN32

I've been using Email::Stuff lately. Doesn't get any easier. From the docs (with a mod for using SMTP):

# Prepare the message
  my $body = <<'AMBUSH_READY';
  Dear Santa
  
  I have killed Bun Bun.
  
  Yes, I know what you are thinking... but it was actually a total acc
+ident.
  
  I was in a crowded line at a BayWatch signing, and I tripped, and st
+ood on his head.
  
  I know. Oops! :/
  
  So anyways, I am willing to sell you the body for $1 million dollars
+.
  
  Be near the pinhole to the Dimension of Pain at midnight.
  
  Alias
  
  AMBUSH_READY
  
  # Create and send the email in one shot
  Email::Stuff->from     ('cpan@ali.as'                      )
              ->to       ('santa@northpole.org'              )
              ->bcc      ('bunbun@sluggy.com'                )
              ->text_body($body                              )
              ->attach   (io('dead_bunbun_faked.gif')->all,
                          filename => 'dead_bunbun_proof.gif')
              ->using     ('SMTP', Host => 'smtp.mail.yahoo.com')
              ->send;

Hi Brent Here's what I'm doing (and it doesn't work). I'm feeling pretty stupid about this. `use Email::Stuff; use IO::All; $body = 'this is a test'; # Create and send the email in one shot Email::Stuff->from ('brejen@comcast.net' ) ->to ('ailithir@yahoo.com' ) ->bcc ('slyder2412@hotmail.com' ) ->text_body($body ) ->attach (io('test.doc')->all, filename => 'test.doc') ->using ('SMTP', Host => 'smtp.mail.yahoo.com') ->send;` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

"and it doesn't work" isn't a lot for us to go on, did you read How do I post a question effectively?? This question comes up often, see Sending Mail trough Perl using ActivePerl on windows or use super search for further examples. Martin	[reply]

sorry, of course 'it does not work' is not very helpful...unfortunately, there is no error printed so I have no idea what further information to include.	[reply]
