Looking at your code, I get the impression you're trying to use CRAM-MD5 authentication. From the output you pasted, it would seem that your SMTP server only supports the PLAIN and LOGIN methods, though. That may be worth a look.

That said, when I look at the Net::SMTP documentation, I only see two parameters for the auth() method: username and password. I suspect that's where your problem lies (apart from the earlier suggestion on interpolation).

Lastly, you may want to use TLS when sending credentials, unless you have reason to trust the network(s) the packets travel over. I suppose that is of less immediate concern. For that, you could try e.g. Net::SMTP::SSL. That does SSL (typically port 465). I don't have a STARTTLS suggestion handy (which your mail server also appears to support).

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
