MIME::Lite installation

I have an error message when I try installing MIME::Lite.

I have an OS X 10.3.8 machine with Apache/1.3.33 (Darwin) PHP/4.3.10.
I am trying to install Soupermail, which requires MIME::Lite. I downloaded
the installation kit for MIME-Lite 3.01 from cpan.org. When I do
a make install, I get this error:

mkdir ///man: Permission denied at /System/Library/Perl/5.8.1/ExtUtils/Install.pm line 113
make: *** [pure_site_install] Error 255

The "///man" path looks pretty suspicious -- I expext I don't have the right variables declared. I looked around a bit for a more complete MIME::Lite
instructions or FAQ. Anyone know where I could get help?

thx,
BR

Run this from a command line:
cpan install MIME::Lite'

After a long time, I revisited this project. Thanks for the help.

Many prerequisites were downloaded and built, and then it installed
MIME::Lite.
