SYNOPSIS
# sending email is simple
use Email::Sender::Server::Client 'email';
my $receipt = email { to => '...', subject => '...', body => '...' };
# ... check on the status of $receipt
print "file has been queued" if -f $receipt;
print "file has been processed" if ! -f $receipt;
or using an object-oriented approach ....
use Email::Sender::Server::Client;
my $client = Email::Sender::Server::Client->new;
my $receipt = $client->email({to => '...', subject => '...', body => '...'});
print "file has been queued" if -f $receipt;
print "file has been processed" if ! -f $receipt;
Please see the Email::Sender::Server::Message class for attributes that can be used as arguments to the mail() and send() methods.
Currently all ESS classes operate out of the current-working-directory which can be sub-optimal, especially when used in other classes that can be utilized by various different scripts.
The ESS_DATA environment variable can be set to change the path of the ess_data (data) directory utilized by the ess program, otherwise you may use the path parameter.
By default, a "ess_data" folder is created for you automatically in the current directory however when changing the path to the ess_data directory, please note that such a change will supercede the defaults and data will be stored at the path you've specified. For continuity, try to use absolute paths only!!!
DESCRIPTION
Email::Sender::Server::Client provides an interface to the ESS non-blocking email delivery system which queues emails for later delivery. This class is a simple wrapper around the Email::Sender::Server::Manager class, the manager is responsible for queuing email messages and delegating tasks to the worker processes.
EXPORTS
The email method is designed to provide a simple single method for sending emails to the server. It accepts valid attributes accepted by Email::Sender::Server::Message. It returns a list of two elements, a client object and the filepath of the queued message if the operation was successful.
use Email::Sender::Server::Client 'email';
email { to => '...', subject => '...', body => '...' }
or die "Error sending message to ...";
