You need these new arch packages:
perl-mime-tools perl-net-smtp-ssl perl-authen-sasl

To uninstall the cpan stuff I did this in case I need to put anything back

mkdir -p siteperl_uninstall/{lib,share}
sudo mv /usr/share/perl5/site_perl/*  siteperl_uninstall/share/
sudo mv /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/*  siteperl_uninstall/lib/
