Overview

Handles the transportation of a Message to its destination. Basic support for SMTP (through Net::SMTP) or sendmail.

You can either pass a new Config object during transport or use the system wide DefaultConfig object.

Examples:

To set transport to use sendmail 
MmMail::Transport::DefaultConfig.method = :sendmail
# Note you might need to point to sendmail if it's not in your PATH:
MmMail::Transport::DefaultConfig.sendmail_binary = '/path/to/sendmail'
To connect to your ISP SMTP server on 587 
MmMail::Transport::DefaultConfig.host = 'smtp.myisp.com'
MmMail::Transport::DefaultConfig.port = 587
