You should look at Email::Sender::SMTP::TLS instead--it's the de facto, mature way of sending email through TLS SMTP servers with perl, and is actively supported. Mail::Sender reinvents a lot of wheels, poorly, as you are finding. Also avoid the MIME::Lite suggestion posted, as that module is deprecated and not recommended for new code due to the vagaries and odd bugs in it--also due to the fact that it's not actively maintained or developed any more and just receives an occasional bug fix. -- Chris Nehren | Coder, Sysadmin, Masochist Shadowcat Systems Ltd. | http://shadowcat.co.uk/
