I think vacation.pl should be using sendmail(1) rather than SMTP
to inject auto-response messages. The documentation for Mail::Sender
v0.8.22 includes:
TLS_allowed
If set to a true value Mail::Sender attempts to use LTS
(SSL encrypted connection) whenever the server supports it
and you have IO::Socket::SSL and Net::SSLeay.
The default value of ths option is TRUE! This means that
if Mail::Server can send the data encrypted, it will.
If TLS_allowed insists on authentication, then having it on by
default is rather unwise. You may be able to unset this, but better
yet, use local submission rather than SMTP for vacation re-injection.
