1) How can I tell that the SSL being used is provided by Crypt::SSLeay and not IO::Socket::SSL ?
see which is loaded
use Crypt::SSLeay 0.57; use Net::SSL 2.84; print "Net::SSL $Net::SSL::VERSION\n"; print "Crypt::SSLeay $Crypt::SSLeay::VERSION\n";
or you could even go poking around inside
print $Net::HTTPS::SSL_SOCKET_CLASS;
2) And once we figure that out, we're still not aware of a way to learn which version of SSL is actually being used. It may fail when trying SSL 3.0 and fall back to SSL 2.0... We may have such an old version of (insert dependancy name here) that 3.0 isn't even available. These are our prime concerns we're trying to figure out.

Demand up to date versions of modules like shown above. And don't be afraid to dig through the source till you figure it out :)

3) Also, those notes make reference to "$ENV{HTTPS_VERSION}".... As this is a web app, isn't the $ENV variable filled with values associated with the connection between the web app client and our server? The connection we're worried about is between our server and the 3rd party service.

%ENV is filled with lots of stuff, and AFAIK, no webserver sets $ENV{HTTPS_VERSION}, which is probably why it was chosen by Crypt::SSLeay

Heres one way to check
