in reply to Error message not showing up from Net::SMTP

My mistake in the quote -- the cut and paste I used resulted in the extra '\'.
perl -MNet::SMTP -e "print $Net::SMTP::VERSION" 2.31 Also, ppm query libnet reports libnet version as 1.22

    Aah ... and there's also an extraneous '\' before '$self'.

    As usual, I don't have a ready (and accurate) answer to your questions :-)

    Looks to me that set_status should have been called. Is set_status supposed to print an error message to stdout ? Where is set_status defined ? (Sheesh ... I hate inheritance ... )
