## NAME

Log::Dispatch::Email::MailSend - Subclass of Log::Dispatch::Email that uses the Mail::Send module

## VERSION

version 2.71

## SYNOPSIS

```
  use Log::Dispatch;
  my $log = Log::Dispatch->new(
      outputs => [
          [
              'Email::MailSend',
              min_level => 'emerg',
              to        => [qw( foo@example.com bar@example.org )],

  );
  $log->emerg('Something bad is happening');
```

## DESCRIPTION

This is a subclass of Log::Dispatch::Email that implements the send\_email method using the Mail::Send module.

## CHANGING HOW MAIL IS SENT

Since Mail::Send is a subclass of Mail::Mailer, you can change how mail is sent from this module by simply `"use"`ing Mail::Mailer in your code before mail is sent. For example, to send mail via smtp, you could do:

```
  use Mail::Mailer 'smtp', Server => 'foo.example.com';
```

For more details, see the Mail::Mailer docs.
