<div>I did what you said, wrapping in an eval, and no errors occured. However, I think I have narrowed the problem down some. Here is what I have discovered:</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I changed the configuration of Catalyst::Plugin::Email to use an unauthenticated SMTP server which I own (I have relaying disabled, and only have the IP address of my web server on the allow relay domains - so its not an open relay). This is actually the SMTP server that my other non-Catalyst Net::SMTP scripts use. Well, needless to say, once I changed that the Catalyst app began happily sending e-mails with Catalyst::Plugin::Email I could keep it this way if I had to, but would rather not because I don't know how long I am going to keep this other mail server around. This was part of the reason why I began moving my e-mail activity to Rackspace, I don't want to have to deal with maintaining a mail server in the future.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>So anyway, back to Catalyst::Plugin::Email with authenticated SMTP...</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I think the issue I am having is actually with the username and passwords being sent encrypted in Base64. I have verified that I am able to perform an AUTH LOGIN on the Rackspace SMTP server from my web server by doing a telnet my.smtp.server 25; HELO host; AUTH LOGIN; <Base64 encoded Username>; <Base64 encoded Password>, and I get a 235 2.7.0 Authentication successful. So I know this web server is capable of authenticating on the SMTP server.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>So now my thoughts turn to, why would the username and password not be encoded properly with perl on my web server, but it does work on my Mac at home? Just as a quickie, I updated my MIME::Base64 to the newest version, and re-started. No such luck.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Any other ideas on where to look next, now that I have been able to uncover more information?<br><br></div>

they work fine so I know that e-mail can get out on this machine. There's<br>just something about Catalyst::Plugin::Email that is not sending them, and<br>leaving no visible errors/warnings/logs that I can find to try to figure out<br>
why.<br></blockquote><br></div>How about wrapping the $c->email() statement in eval {} and checking for errors? I don't know if that will help but easy enough to test.<br><br>Charlie<br><font color="#888888"><br>-- <br>
