That shouldn't be an issue with CPAN::Reporter based submissions, as long as it and Test::Reporter are up to date. CPAN::Reporter truncates test output (*not* Perl -V) to fit within the perl.org size cutoff and it now properly encodes/wraps long lines to avoid exceeding SMTP line length limits that were causing truncations and other problems. Do you have any recent examples? -- David
