Hi,

Thanks for the reply. Ah man, I didn't realise I was running on such an old Net:::SMTP. I've upgraded it now. Almost have it working: 

     use Net::SMTP;
     my $smtp = Net::SMTP->new('smtp.gmail.com',
                           Hello => 'smtp.gmail.com',
                           Timeout => 30,
                           Debug   => 1,
                           SSL     => 1,
                          );
     $smtp->auth($CFG->{db_smtp_user}, $CFG->{db_smtp_pass});
     $smtp->data();
     $smtp->datasend($email);
     $smtp->dataend();

With the debug on, I get this error (and no email sent);

Net::SMTP::_SSL=GLOB(0x3b08578)<<< 502 5.5.1 Unrecognized command. y39sm8325289wmh.21 - gsmtp

Not quite sure what that's telling me though?

Thanks!

Andy
