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. WWW: http://search.cpan.org/dist/Net-SMTP-SSL/
