Re: send email with perl 587 and startssl

It looks like Email::Sender::Transport::SMTP uses Net::SMTP::SSL, which 
only supports SSL (establishes a secure channel before any SMTP occurs, 
port 465) and not STARTTLS (the SMTP connection is established and then 
is "upgraded" to TLS, port 587 and sometimes 25)

Net::SMTP::TLS is probably what you are looking for.  I have used it in 
my code, and I know that it works.  There may be other modules that 
support STARTTLS as well.

I don't know if there is an easy way to get Net::SMTP::TLS to work with 
Email::Sender::Transport::SMTP.  Perhaps you could use Net::SMTP::TLS 
directly with Email::Sender::Simple?
