Use of SendMail on NT4

[xjc539w]

Probably a simple error, but it is baffling to me. I've successfully used this code (Thankyou) on other machines (XP & W2K), but as I try to execute from a NT4 box I receive the following:


D:\perl\lib\Mail>perl -v

D:\perl\lib\Mail>d:\perl\bin\perl d:\usr\Production\TestMail.plx
Can't locate object method "new" via package "SendMail" (perhaps you forgot to
oad "SendMail"?) at d:\usr\Production\TestMail.plx line 26.

You'll have to be a little more specific, can you post the configuration details, as well as the calling stub

The specifics: An NT workstation, with ActivePerl 5.6.* installed. The SendMail.pm manually installed to the Perl\lib folder

The TestMail.plx being executed has been tailored to work in my host environment.

use Env;
use Sendmail;

#
# Create the object without any arguments,
# i.e. localhost is the default SMTP server.
#
$sm = new SendMail(xxxxxx);

where xxxxx = the ip address of the mail server

 

[PaulTEG]

use Sendmail;
$sm= new SendMail(xxxxx)

Mismatch of M & m
