in thread Recommendation for email sending modules please

My guess is your machine isn't running an SMTP server. You will probably need to point the script at one. See "passing in your own transport" and the corresponding SMTP docs: Email::Sender::Transport::SMTP

    Running a server ???
    Don't I just need to refer it to
    C:\Program Files\Git\bin\msmtp.exe or something like that ?
    That was the idea I got from Email::Sender,
    or is that counts as running a server ?
    Your 1st link refers to a "host" & a "port", how can I figure out what should these be set to ?

    Thx

      You will need to ask your ISP for the host and port of the ISPs mailserver if you are not running your own. You can also try to send the mail directly to the recipients mailserver, but many mailservers reject mails from dial-up or residential IP addresses.
