DESCRIPTION

Simple module to send emails through Google's SMTP with or without attachments. Works with regular Gmail accounts as with Google Apps (your own domains). It supports basic functions such as CC, BCC, ReplyTo.

new(-login=>'', -pass=>'' [,-smtp=>'',layer=>'',-port=>'',-debug=>''])

It creates the object and opens a session with the SMTP.

smtp: defines SMTP server. Default value: smtp.gmail.com layer: defines the secure layer to use. It could be 'tls'or 'ssl'. Default value: tls port: defines the port to use. Default values are 25 for tls and 465 for ssl debug: only really works with ssl layer (because currently Net::SMTP::TLS::ButMaintained doesn't support it).

send(-to=>'', [-subject=>'', -cc=>'', -bcc=>'', -replyto=>'', -charset=>'', -body=>'', -attachments=>''])

It composes and sends the email in one shot

to, cc, bcc: comma separated email addresses
contenttype: Content-Type for the body message. Examples are: text/plain (default), text/html, etc.
attachments: comma separated files with full path
bye

Closes the SMTP session
