Why?

https://perldoc.perl.org/5.24.0/Net/SMTP.html
https://perldoc.perl.org/5.26.0/Net/SMTP.html

Description:

This module implements a client interface to the SMTP and ESMTP
protocol, enabling a perl5 application to talk to SMTP servers. This
documentation assumes that you are familiar with the concepts of the
SMTP protocol described in RFC2821. With IO::Socket::SSL installed it
also provides support for implicit and explicit TLS encryption, i.e.
SMTPS or SMTP+STARTTLS.
