NAME

       Net::SMTP::SSL - SSL support for Net::SMTP

SYNOPSIS

         use Net::SMTP::SSL;

         my $smtps = Net::SMTP::SSL->new("example.com", Port => 465);

DEPRECATED

       Hey!  Read this!

       Since Net::SMTP v1.28 (2014-10-08), Net::SMTP itself has support for SMTP over SSL, and also for
       STARTTLS.  Use Net::SMTP, not Net::SMTP::SSL.

DESCRIPTION

       Implements the same API as Net::SMTP, but uses IO::Socket::SSL for its network operations. Due to the
       nature of "Net::SMTP"'s "new" method, it is not overridden to make use of a default port for the SMTPS
       service. Perhaps future versions will be smart like that. Port 465 is usually what you want, and it's not
       a pain to specify that.

       For interface documentation, please see Net::SMTP.
