This is a bug report for perl from timbo [at] timac,
generated with the help of perlbug 1.39 running under perl 5.11.2.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
[Please describe your issue here]
perlbug doesn't check the return status of Mail::Send and so reports
"Message sent" even if it hasn't:

while (<REP>) { print $fh $_ }
close(REP) or die "Error closing $filename: $!";
- $fh->close;
+ $fh->close or die "Error sending mail: $!";
print "\nMessage sent.\n";
}
but that's not enough. On my machine (OS X 10.5.8) it still reports
"Message sent" but no mail has been sent.
I wonder how many bug reports have been lost due to this?
