NAME

       Mail::Send - Simple electronic mail interface

SYNOPSIS

         require Mail::Send;

         $msg = Mail::Send->new;
         $msg = Mail::Send->new(Subject => 'example', To => 'timbo');

         $msg->to('user@host');
         $msg->to('user@host', 'user2@example.com');
         $msg->subject('example subject');
         $msg->cc('user@host');
         $msg->bcc('someone@else');

         $msg->set($header, @values);
         $msg->add($header, @values);
         $msg->delete($header);

         # Launch mailer and set headers. The filehandle returned
         # by open() is an instance of the Mail::Mailer class.
         # Arguments to the open() method are passed to the Mail::Mailer
         # constructor.

         $fh = $msg->open;   # some default mailer
         $fh = $msg->open('sendmail'); # explicit
         print $fh "Body of message";
         $fh->close          # complete the message and send it
             or die "couldn't send whole message: $!\n";

DESCRIPTION

       Mail::Send creates e-mail messages without using the Mail::Header knowledge, which means
       that all escaping and folding must be done by you!  Also: do not forget to escape leading
       dots.  Simplicity has its price.

       When you have time, take a look at Mail::Transport which is part of the MailBox suite.

METHODS

   Constructors
       Mail::Send->new(PAIRS)
           A list of header fields (provided as key-value PAIRS) can be used to initialize the
           object, limited to the few provided as method: "to", "subject", "cc", and "bcc".  For
           other header fields, use add().

   Header fields
       $obj->add($fieldname, @values)
           Add values to the list of defined values for the $fieldname.

       $obj->bcc(@values)
       $obj->cc(@values)
       $obj->delete($fieldname)
       $obj->set($fieldname, @values)
           The @values will replace the old values for the $fieldname.  Returned is the LIST of
           values after modification.

       $obj->subject(@values)
       $obj->to(@values)

   Sending
       $obj->open(%options)
           The %options are used to initiate a mailer object via Mail::Mailer::new().  Then
           Mail::Mailer::open() is called with the knowledge collected in this "Mail::Send"
           object.

           Be warned: this module implements raw smtp, which means that you have to escape lines
           which start with a dot, by adding one in front.
