Or would I need to edit the Module as well?

No need to edit the module.

The snippet of code shows some variable declaration.

What it does not declare is the username and password declaration that would be needed for authentication. (never post real world usernames or passwords on the net)

Also it is not the part that would do the actual authentication.

When cross-checking Net::SMTP's auth method against the module list provided I noticed Authen::SASL is missing in there.
