I few days ago i posted here looking for support to my new project WWW::SMS: thank you for suggestions.
Anyway the new() method is now more beautiful and standardized as it allows for free optional parameters in hash fashion.
Now it's coded like this: 
sub new {
    my ($self, $key, $value);
    my $class = shift;
    my ($intpref, $prefix, $telnum, $smstext, %hash) = @_;
        $self = bless {
            'intpref' => $intpref,
            'prefix' => $prefix,
            'telnum' => $telnum,
            'smstext' => $smstext,
            'cookie_jar' => exists $hash{cookie_jar} ? 
                            delete $hash{cookie_jar} :
                            "lwpcookies.txt",
        }, $class;
        for (($key, $value) = each %hash) {
            $self->{$key} = $value;
        }
    $self;
}

Is there any better way to code the last part of the method where i just put every remaining hash value into the object?
Is there a way to do it without cycling over the hash?
Bye and thanks.
