Subject: Dependency on Authen::SASL and MIME::Base64 not enforced
Date: Mon, 05 Jul 2010 11:54:16 +0530
To: bug-Email-Sender [...] rt.cpan.org
From: "Gurunandan R. Bhat" <guru [...] dygnos.com>
An SMTP Auth Transport (set via Email::Sender::Transport::SMTP) requires Authen::SASL to be installed. If Authen::SASL is not installed, the SMTP server logs report "... lost connection after EHLO..." and silently fails. Once Authen::SASL is installed, everything works correctly under SMTP Auth. May I suggest that Authen::SASL and MIME::Base64 be considered dependencies that must be installed before Email::Sender is? Thanks. Gurunandan
In 0.110000, this will result in a clear and immediate fatal error explaining the problem. I have decided not to make these modules hard prerequisites Sorry for the delay. -- rjbs
