In time the MD5 module from 5.6.1 will be used as:
load "MD5"?) at /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.1/CPAN.pm line 4212

So a reinstall of perl 5.8 wouldn't solve the problem.

I myself run 5.6.1 , so i only can tell you, why i hadn't
this problem on my machine.
I didn't modify neomail because of the MD5 hexhash problem.
But i have the module MD5 installed, which is a wrapper
for Digest::MD5
see http://search.cpan.org/author/GAAS/MD5-2.02/MD5.pm

If you consider going this way a try, you need to "unpatch"
your neomail :-/
