In your example, did you call credentials() also?

    No. Notice I don't call the base class's get_basic_credentials for the domain of interest, so the info I would feed to credentials would never get used.

        I also overloaded the constructor. 
        sub new {
   my ($class, %options) = @_;

   my $user   = delete $options{user};
   my $passwd = delete $options{passwd};
   ...

   my $self = $class->SUPER::new(%options);
   $self->{user}   = $user;
   $self->{passwd} = $passwd;
   ...
   return $self;
}
