Re^2: problem sending mail

With powershell i can send a mail. on port 587, using SSL, like so:

$from = "any@gmx.com"
$to = "rob@gmail.com"
$subj = "test PShell."
$body = "boddy"
$server = "mail.gmx.com"
$port = "587"
Send-MailMessage -From $from -To $to -Subject $subj -body $body -SmtpS
+erver $server -Port $port -UseSsl -Credential (Get-Credential)
[download]

Surely i can do the same with Perl!

Certainly, and the fact that you're having trouble doing so means there is some difference between the command that works and the one that doesn't, so you'll have to figure out what the differences between the two are.

You might want to give the more modern `Email::*` modules by RJBS a try, for example see Email::Sender::Manual::QuickStart.	[reply] [d/l]
