Hi

I am using the following code to send a test mail: 

use Net::SMTP;

$smtp = Net::SMTP->new('pop.myserver.com);
$smtp->auth('myusername', 'mypassword');
$smtp->mail('from@emailaddress.com');
$smtp->to('to@emailaddress.com');
$smtp->data();
$smtp->datasend("Subject: test smtp\n");
$smtp->datasend("test\n");
$smtp->dataend();
$smtp->quit;

[download]

It works precisely in one system, whereas it is showing up the following error in another system:

Unknown callback: 'authname'. (user|auth|language|pass)

Any idea?

Thanks
Srikanth
