Hello,
I am trying to send e-mail using Perl and Net::SMTP::SSL. However, I receive errors when running this script (example from documentation):
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use Net::SMTP::SSL;
sub send_mail {
my $to = $_[0];
my $subject = $_[1];
my $body = $_[2];
my $from = 'me@gmail.com';
my $password = 'MySuperSecretPassword';
my $smtp;
if (not $smtp = Net::SMTP::SSL->new('smtp.gmail.com',
Port => 465,
Debug => 1)) {
die "Could not connect to server\n";
}
$smtp->auth($from, $password)
|| die "Authentication failed!\n";
$smtp->mail($from . "\n");
my @recepients = split(/,/, $to);
foreach my $recp (@recepients) {
$smtp->to($recp . "\n");
}
$smtp->data();
$smtp->datasend("From: " . $from . "\n");
$smtp->datasend("To: " . $to . "\n");
$smtp->datasend("Subject: " . $subject . "\n");
$smtp->datasend("\n");
$smtp->datasend($body . "\n");
$smtp->dataend();
$smtp->quit;
}
# Send away!
&send_mail('name@example.com', 'Server just blew up', 'Some more detail');Naturally, I change the value of from, to, and password to be their correct values when I run the script.
However, I receive errors like this:
Net::SMTP::SSL>>> Net::SMTP::SSL(1.01)
Net::SMTP::SSL>>> IO::Socket::SSL(1.30)
Net::SMTP::SSL>>> IO::Socket::INET(1.31)
Net::SMTP::SSL>>> IO::Socket(1.30_01)

Authentication failed!And yes, I am certain that all the values I am using are valid.
Any thoughts about this?
