Re^2: MIME::Lite 250 OK QUEUE ID???

Err, eval because I don't want it to die if it fails - I want to process the error. I don't know any other way being a novice :-) I have found, however, that and using die, funny enough, stops execution which is not the course of action I would like. I did look at last_send_successful() but my feeble attempts gained me: "Can't locate object method "last_send_successful" via package "MIME::Lite"" thus:

        eval{$message->send};
        if($@) {
                $result = "ERROR from MX: $mx_record\n$@\n";
        } else {
        $result = $message->last_send_successful();
        }

The documentation implies that send will not die on failure, that it will simply return false, so `$message->send or do_something(); $message->send; if( ! $message->last_send_successful ){ $ERROR = "ERROR from MX: $mx_record\n"; }` [download] If indeed send might die, the documentation needs updating (file a bug report).

MIME::Lite will die on various errors when sending via smtp. MIME::Lite says, of its send_by_smtp method: Returns: True on success, croaks with an error message on failure. and Carp says of croak: die of errors update: corrected reference to MIME::Lite.	[reply]

1: It dies, hence why I'm trapping for it. 2: It is the latest, downloaded and built from the very page that lists the method - perhaps the author needs to check where that link is/was pointing. 3: The answer to my actual question, rather than anal retentive output given by some anonymous numbnuts, is that successful SMTP status messages are not captured.
