[Catalyst] C::V::Email::Template - "no sender" error

[Oleg Kostyuk]

This is part of example from Catalyst::View::Email::Template:

=========================================
        $c->stash->{email} = {
            to          => 'jshirley at gmail.com',
            cc          => 'abraxxa at cpan.org',
            bcc         => 'hidden at secret.com hidden2 at foobar.com',
            from        => 'no-reply at foobar.com',
            ..................
=========================================

Your stash have "to" key/value pair, but don't have "from".

Also:

# grep -nr 'no sender' /usr/**/perl/
/usr/local/share/perl/5.10.1/Email/Sender/Manual/QuickStart.pm:67:those
fields.  Similarly, if no sender is specified, it will use the first
/usr/local/share/perl/5.10.1/Email/Sender/Simple.pm:106:
Email::Sender::Failure::Permanent->throw("no sender") if ! defined
$from;
