in reply to SMTP Connection Problem

You might also try adding "or die's" into the mix as well. Also, you might try looking at $@ instead of $!, might be more or better information there. Something like:

my $smtp = Net::SMTP->new($SMTP_SERVER, Debug => 1) or die "Cannot con
+nect to $SMTP_SEVER. $@";

That should at least tell you if you are making the connection in the first place.

    When I use the "or die" line you suggested, I still get the identical return code that I posted, followed by the "cannot connect to xxx.xx.xxx.xxx. at c:\Email.pl line 37." So the $@ didn't give me any useful information,either. I appreciate the suggestion, though!
