learn2earn has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I had a script that would send email on my old webserver, but now that the server has changed locations it has broken. I am not sure what I need to change. I am getting the following error. The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers. The headers it did return are: Authentication protocol LOGIN is not accepted by the server. I can "see" there are logins for my old server, not sure if they exist on the new server, not sure what to do to fix am hesitant to post the script as it does contain some rather sensitive info. um nevermind I fixed it

    Authentication protocol LOGIN is not accepted by the server.

    That means you will need to change the authentication method your script uses to an authentication method that your new SMTP server supports/accepts.

      quite right.. sorry apparently I needed more coffee this am.
