Perl script issue.

Question

Hi,
How do I properly install the Perl modules as listed below for
OES2SP2/SLES10SP3- SendMail.pm, MIME*?
Do I use YAST,CPAN.org, 'make install'?
I just moved a NetWare Perl script over to OES2SP2/SLES10SP3.
The script fails because of missing SendMail.pm
Can't locate Mail/SendMail.pm in @INC (@INC contains:
//usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi
I have reviewed this link and it states:
http://www.tneoh.zoneit.com/perl/SendMail/FAQ.html#Q5
5) I got error:
Can't locate SendMail.pm in @INC (@INC contains:
/usr/lib/perl5/5.6.0/i386-linux /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.0
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0/i386-linux /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl .) at (eval 6) line 1.
Ans: Make sure you include the folder where you store those SendMail.pm,
MIME/Base64.pm and MIME/QuotedPrint.pm files into @INC.
You can do it with:
use lib qw(YOUR/FOLDER);
