in thread Net::SMTP_auth install & usage

Can I do authentication without it?
If Net::SMTP does not provide authentication, then it does not provide authentication. So no, probably not.

Better yet, can I copy the two or three functions that it has in it into my own code? It will move between servers better that way.
You can, but what's the point? Just call cpan Net::SMTP_auth on your other machine, and it will install for you. You can even install it to a different directory, such as your project's library. All you would need to do is change the way you call Makefile.PL:

$ cd ~/Desktop/Net-SMTP_auth-0.08 $ perl Makefile.PL LIB=/home/me/projects/myproject-1.0/lib

The rest is the same.
