Mail::Transport::Exim is a Mail::Transport::Send is a Mail::Transport is a Mail::Reporter
SYNOPSIS
my $sender = Mail::Transport::Exim->new(...);
$sender->send($message);
DESCRIPTION
Implements mail transport using the external 'Exim' program. When instantiated, the mailer will look for the binary in specific system directories, and the first version found is taken.Extends ``DESCRIPTION'' in Mail::Transport::Send.
METHODS

Extends ``Constructors'' in Mail::Transport::Send.- Mail::Transport::Exim->new(%options)
-
If you have Exim installed in a non-standard location, you will need to
specify the path, using new(proxy).

DIAGNOSTICS
- Error: Errors when closing Exim mailer $program: $!
- The Exim mail transfer agent did start, but was not able to handle the message correctly.
- Warning: Message has no destination
- It was not possible to figure-out where the message is intended to go to.
- Error: Package $package does not implement $method.
- Fatal error: the specific package (or one of its superclasses) does not implement this method where it should. This message means that some other related classes do implement this method however the class at hand does not. Probably you should investigate this and probably inform the author of the package.
- Warning: Resent group does not specify a destination
-
The message which is sent is the result of a bounce (for instance
created with Mail::Message::bounce()), and therefore starts with a
"Received" header field. With the "bounce", the new destination(s)
of the message are given, which should be included as "Resent-To",
"Resent-Cc", and "Resent-Bcc".
The "To", "Cc", and "Bcc" header information is only used if no "Received" was found. That seems to be the best explanation of the RFC.
As alternative, you may also specify the "to" option to some of the senders (for instance Mail::Transport::SMTP::send(to) to overrule any information found in the message itself about the destination.
