=head1 NAME
Send emails with Catalyst and L<Email::Send> and L<Email::MIME::Creator>.
+=head1 CONFIGURATION
+
+C<config> accepts the same options as L<Email::Send>.
+
+To send using the system's C<sendmail> program, set C<config> like so:
+
+ __PACKAGE__->config->{email} = ['Sendmail'];
+
+To send using authenticated SMTP:
+
+ __PACKAGE__->config->{email} = [
+ 'SMTP',
+ 'smtp.myhost.com',
+ username => $USERNAME,
+ password => $PASSWORD,
+ ];
+
+For different methods of sending emails, and appropriate C<config> options,
+see L<Email::Send::NNTP>, L<Email::Send::Qmail>, L<Email::Send::SMTP> and
+L<Email::Send::Sendmail>.
+
+=head1 METHODS
+
+=head2 email
+
+C<email()> accepts the same arguments as L<Email::MIME::Creator>'s
+C<create()>.
+
+ $c->email(
+ header => [
+ To => 'me@localhost',
+ Subject => 'A TT Email',
+ ],
+ body => $c->subreq( '/render_email' ),
+ );
+
+To send a multipart message, include a C<parts> argument containing an
+arrayref of Email::MIME objects.
+
+ my @parts = (
+ Email::MIME->create(
+ attributes => {
+ content_type => 'application/pdf',
+ encoding => 'quoted-printable',
+ name => 'report.pdf',
+ },
+ body => $FILE_DATA,
+ ),
+ Email::MIME->create(
+ attributes => {
+ content_type => 'text/plain',
+ disposition => 'attachment',
+ charset => 'US-ASCII',
+ },
+ body => $c->subreq( '/render_email' ),
+ ),
+ );
+
+ $c->email(
+ header => [
+ To => 'me@localhost',
+ Subject => 'A TT Email',
+ ],
+ parts => \@parts,
+ );
+
+=cut
+
+sub email {
+ my $c = shift;
+ my $email = $_[1] ? {@_} : $_[0];
+ croak "Can't send mail without recipient"
+ unless length($email->{To});
+ $email = Email::MIME->create(%$email);
+ my $args = $c->config->{email} || [];
+ my @args = @{$args};
+ my $class;
+ unless ( $class = shift @args ) {
+ $class = 'SMTP';
+ unshift @args, 'localhost';
