I've created a Christmas coupon for a free copy of Leaning Perl Exercises. This runs from all day on December 25 from midnight to midnight UTC for the first 37 uses (happy birthday Perl!).

I'm a sysadmin who has very little experience with perl (who am I kidding, none). I recently came across some legacy code that "broke" due to migrating systems which leads me to some questions. Specifically the problem had to do with UTF8 support. Our environment requires supporting french characters.
what are the pros and cons of using these two?:
# open(MAIL, "| /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -oi")
# use Net::SMTP;
postfix is installed on all systems in question. If it matters the old systems are rhel7 based and the new systems are rhel9 based.
In my attempts to troubleshot the code vs system issues - using NET::SMTP worked very well for me. But the Devs not wanting to update their code insist I find a solution for their old sendmail version. That was done by setting postfix to "smtputf8_enable = no".
So what are the pros and cons of each method?
What are use cases for one over the other?
Are there other better modern ways of sending email either with perl directly or by using the systems smtp app?

I have no idea to what extent this is official, but GitHub is not updating any Perl package in the GitHub action runners. This is the current response to a request to post back LWP::protocol::https
which was there before, but vanished, needing an installation that takes a good amount of time.
