Hi,

Thanks for putting me onto CGI::Carp, it has been great to be able to see _where_ the script is crashing. I just directed the log file to a path I could view via a browser, as SSH access take foreever to load.

I've now been able to use Net::SMTP successfully, once I put "localhost" as the domain/mailserver, it worked like a charm. The only problem I found was I could not do this

$from = 'sales@domain.com';
$toaddress = 'fredflintstone@disney.com';
$name = 'Fred Flintstone';

$smtp->mail('$from\n");
$smtp->to("$toaddress\n");

but got around the problem by putting email headers like this

$smtp->data();
$smtp->datasend("To: $name <$toaddress>\n");
$smtp->datasend("Subject: Confirmation and Thankyou\n");
$smtp->datasend("X-Order-IP: $ENV{REMOTE_ADDR}\n");
$smtp->datasend("\n");
$smtp->datasend("Hi $name,\n");
