in reply to Mail::Sender problem - user unknown on host

If you set 'smtp_server_name' to a real smtp server and you got that error, then you are not allowed to use that smtp server to relay mail. It is a common setup to prevent unscrupulous people to mail huge quantities of junk e-mail...

    Probably you right. $smtp is set to 'arkab.petamem.com' in real code and if I try to send this mail to my address (rv@petamem.com) no error occurs.
