Simple interface for creating (not parsing!) MIME messages

MIMELite is intended as a simple, standalone module for generating not parsing! MIME messages… specifically, it allows you to output a simple, decent single- or multi-part message with text or binary attachments. It does not require that you have the Mail or MIME modules installed.

To use the built-in SMTP interface and thereby avoid calling sendmail please install the Net module through ports/net/p5-Net, or stand alone. This package will contain the NetSMTP code required.

If you need more sophisticated behaviour from MIME, please install the MIMEtools package instead.
