in reply to Net::SMTP upgraded but with warnings

Hello bdegan2,

There is an old bug report related with your problem at Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 437681 Constant subroutine IO::Socket::INET6::AF_INET6 redefined.

The proposed solution is:

There was patch from Net::DNS upstream, which resolve all mentioned is
+sues for
me. I push it to updates, please test and let us know.

I would not recommend to force install module(s). There is a reason that the module was failing and this was because of IO::Socket::INET6. I would recommend to update your IO::Socket::INET6 and Net::DNS module also. It should fix your problem.

Hope this helps, BR.

    Hello again

    The IO::Socket::INET6 upgrade was successful:

    perl -MIO::Socket::INET6 -e 'print "$IO::Socket::INET6::VERSION\n"' 2.72

    And all the warning messages that we had previously received using Net::SMTP have stopped.

    Everything is working.

    Thank you for all your assistance on this
