I am using perl on my windows machine. I have downloaded Mail:Sendmail and got it saved in @INC. I want to use my gmail as my smtp server. Where can I configure my gmail password?

Gmail requires SSL, which Mail::Sendmail doesn't support. So I'm afraid you will not be able to use the Google SMTP servers.

However, you may be able to use another SMTP mail server, which does not require encryption. If you need authentication (without encryption!), you can use the version 0.79.16. It is avalable from http://alma.ch/perl/scripts/Sendmail/ ( documentation: http://alma.ch/perl/scripts/Sendmail/Sendmail.html#item__24mail_7bauth_7d )
