Re: Sending email with authentication using Net::SMTP.

Put this in your code after the "$smtp=Net::SMTP-new..." line: $smtp-auth($account,$password); but the SMTP server needs to deal with SASL. Use values for $account and $password that authorize you for that server. My attempt at this failed until my service provider updated antiquated
