title: Which package from CPAN should I use to send mail?
body: <p>Which package from CPAN should I use to <strong>send mail</strong>?</p>
  
  <p>Sometime the timtowtdi approach is very tiring. For me, especially when it comes to package selection.</p>
  
  <p>So all I want is to send email, potentially HTML emails. Between Mail-Sendmail, Mail-Sender, NET-SMTP (by the way - not available in PPM), Mail-SendEasy, and the 80 or so other packages that have 'Mail' in their package name - which one should I choose?</p>
  
  <p>And while in this subject, what is your general apprach to choose the "canonical" package for a jog. I.e. the package that "everybody is using". Is there any rating or popularity billboard somewhere? </p>
