in thread pp generated executable can't find or load libraries

Hi swl,

Many thanks for your input! I think we are making progress here.

I am now getting the below error instead.

Can't locate object method "start_SSL" via package "IO::Socket::SSL" at script/sendemail.pl line 474.

    It seems that a plain pp call, even with the -x flag, does not trigger all of the libraries, but packing works under pp_autolink.

    You could also add these lines to the script, assuming in your case you always want to use them anyway: 

    BEGIN {
    use Net::SSLeay;
    use IO::Socket::SSL;
    IO::Socket::SSL->start_SSL($SERVER, SSL_version => 'TLSv1_2', SSL_
+verify_mode => 0 );
}

    When I run the exe I can get the usage information.

    However, I have not tested if sending emails actually works, and that might be the next point of failure, leading to your other reply in 11131180.
