Mail::Transport::Sendmail is a Mail::Transport::Send is a Mail::Transport is a Mail::Reporter

Implements mail transport using the external 'Sendmail' program. When instantiated, the mailer will look for the binary in specific system directories, and the first version found is taken.
'Sendmail'
Some people use Postfix as MTA. Postfix can be installed as replacement for Sendmail: is provides a program with the same name and options. So, this module supports postfix as well.

Error: Errors when closing sendmail mailer $program: $!
The was no problem starting the sendmail mail transfer agent, but for some specific reason the message could not be handled correctly.
Error: Package $package does not implement $method.
Fatal error: the specific package (or one of its superclasses) does not implement this method where it should. This message means that some other related classes do implement this method however the class at hand does not. Probably you should investigate this and probably inform the author of the package.
