You probably want to see the section on "Transport Options": *** Transport options The Test::Reporter 1.39_XX development series added support for multiple transport modules, e.g. Test::Reporter::Transport::Net::SMTP::TLS or Test::Reporter::Transport::HTTPGateway. To use them with CPAN::Reporter, set the 'transport' config option to the name of the transport module (without the 'Test::Reporter::Transport' prefix) and any required arguments, separated by white space. For example: transport=Net::SMTP::TLS User j...@example.com Password 12345 transport=HTTPGateway http://example.com/cpantesters.cgi MyKey transport=File ~/saved-reports-dir The transport module may be any Test::Reporter::Transport installed on your system. As of Test::Reporter 1.39_05, transports included 'Net::SMTP', 'Net::SMTP::TLS', 'Mail::Send', 'HTTPGateway' and 'File'. *** It's not well documented in Net::SMTP, but I suspect you can pass a "Port" option like so: transport=Net::SMTP Port 587 On the other hand, that's usually a port that requires authentication and you can't authenticate against the perl.org mail servers. You'll need to relay through some other external mail server that you have permission for. In that case, you'd want to do this: transport=Net::SMTP::TLS User j...@example.com Password 12345 Port 587 Or -- you might be able to use Verizon's outbound mail servers as a smart gateway with smtp_server, if they don't cut you off due to high mail volume. That's what I do with my ISP, Speakeasy, as they don't care if I'm sending thousands of emails a day. -- David
