I made the change so that MailFrom is in smtpsend.
my @ok = $msg->smtpsend(
                Host       => $full_host_name,
                MailFrom     => $From,
                To           => $To,
            Debug => 1
);

This did give a different set of debug messages as shown below.
I visited the bt site and found that I should enable SMTP authentication in my e-mail program.
I assumed that this meant my e-mail application which is Thunderbird 31.7.0. However, in spite of searching in Thunderbird and web sites I could not find out to do this.
Can anyone help?
