Subroutines/Methods

send_email

$response_message = $self->send_email( @args );
($id, $response_message) = $self->send_email( @args );

Sends emails. Returns the response message in a scalar context, throws on error. In a list context returns the id of the sent message and the response message. The id is parsed from the response message using a simple regular expression . The @args can be a list of keys and values or a hash reference. The attributes defined are;

attachments

A hash reference whose key / value pairs are the attachment name and path name. Encoding and content type are derived from the file name extension
attributes

A hash reference that is applied to the email when it is created. Typical keys are; content_type and charset. See Email::MIME. This is merged onto the email_attr configuration hash reference if it exists
body

Text for the body of the email message
from

Email address of the sender
host

Which host should send the email. Defaults to localhost
mailer

Which mailer should be used to send the email. Defaults to SMTP
stash

Hash reference used by the template rendering to supply values for variable replacement
subject

Subject string. Defaults to No Subject
subprovider

If this object reference exists and an email is generated from a template then it is expected to provide a loc function which will be make callable from the template
functions

A list of functions provided by the "subprovider" object. This list of functions will be bound into the stash instead of the default loc function
template

If it exists then the template is rendered and used as the body contents. See the layout attribute
to

Email address of the recipient
transport_attr

A hash reference passed to the transport constructor. This is merged in with the transport_attr configuration hash reference if it exists

`try_to_send_email`

Just like "send_email" but logs at the error level instead of throwing
