In Mail::Builder::Simple you can find about "live_on_error".

If you use that key, the module won't report the error. If you don't use it and there will appear some errors, it will generate a detailed error. The error is generated by Email::Sender::Simple directly.

It will be something like "unable to establish SMTP connection" plus ~ 1 kB of error trace.
