sending mail from a perl program on xp

How do I write a perl program to send mail from an xp box?
specifically, I am writing a clearcase trigger that sends mail
on a checkout. This functions perfectly from unix but I also
need it to run from xp for my clearcase users that use the
clearcase client on the desk top

Use a module. There are quite a few to choose from. My personal
favorite is Mail::Sender.

I installed the lastest version of cygwin and using
elim, a drop-in replacement for sendmail and that worked
for me.

Hello, I need to send emails from Postgresql triggers. I was able to do it with a 'plperlu' function, that calls the 'system' perl function, that itself calls the 'mail' shell function. Is is safe to do things like this? Is there a possible concurrent access that could arise?
