Net::SMTP(3pm)                        Perl Programmers Reference Guide                        Net::SMTP(3pm)



NAME
       Net::SMTP - Simple Mail Transfer Protocol Client

SYNOPSIS
           use Net::SMTP;

           # Constructors
           $smtp = Net::SMTP->new('mailhost');
           $smtp = Net::SMTP->new('mailhost', Timeout => 60);

DESCRIPTION
       This module implements a client interface to the SMTP and ESMTP protocol, enabling a perl5
       application to talk to SMTP servers. This documentation assumes that you are familiar with the
       concepts of the SMTP protocol described in RFC821.

       A new Net::SMTP object must be created with the new method. Once this has been done, all SMTP
       commands are accessed through this object.

       The Net::SMTP class is a subclass of Net::Cmd and IO::Socket::INET.

EXAMPLES
       This example prints the mail domain name of the SMTP server known as mailhost:

           #!/usr/local/bin/perl -w

           use Net::SMTP;

           $smtp = Net::SMTP->new('mailhost');
           print $smtp->domain,"\n";
           $smtp->quit;

       This example sends a small message to the postmaster at the SMTP server known as mailhost:

           #!/usr/local/bin/perl -w

           use Net::SMTP;

           $smtp = Net::SMTP->new('mailhost');

           $smtp->mail($ENV{USER});
           $smtp->to('postmaster');

           $smtp->data();
           $smtp->datasend("To: postmaster\n");
           $smtp->datasend("\n");
           $smtp->datasend("A simple test message\n");
           $smtp->dataend();

           $smtp->quit;

CONSTRUCTOR
       new ( [ HOST ] [, OPTIONS ] )
           This is the constructor for a new Net::SMTP object. "HOST" is the name of the remote host to
           which an SMTP connection is required.

           "HOST" is optional. If "HOST" is not given then it may instead be passed as the "Host" option
           described below. If neither is given then the "SMTP_Hosts" specified in "Net::Config" will be
           used.

           "OPTIONS" are passed in a hash like fashion, using key and value pairs.  Possible options are:

           Hello - SMTP requires that you identify yourself. This option specifies a string to pass as your
           mail domain. If not given localhost.localdomain will be used.

           Host - SMTP host to connect to. It may be a single scalar, as defined for the "PeerAddr" option
           in IO::Socket::INET, or a reference to an array with hosts to try in turn. The "host" method will
           return the value which was used to connect to the host.

           LocalAddr and LocalPort - These parameters are passed directly to IO::Socket to allow binding the
           socket to a local port.

           Timeout - Maximum time, in seconds, to wait for a response from the SMTP server (default: 120)

           ExactAddresses - If true the all ADDRESS arguments must be as defined by "addr-spec" in RFC2822.
           If not given, or false, then Net::SMTP will attempt to extract the address from the value passed.

           Debug - Enable debugging information

           Example:

               $smtp = Net::SMTP->new('mailhost',
                                      Hello => 'my.mail.domain',
                                      Timeout => 30,
                                      Debug   => 1,
                                     );

               # the same
               $smtp = Net::SMTP->new(
                                      Host => 'mailhost',
                                      Hello => 'my.mail.domain',
                                      Timeout => 30,
                                      Debug   => 1,
                                     );

               # Connect to the default server from Net::config
               $smtp = Net::SMTP->new(
                                      Hello => 'my.mail.domain',
                                      Timeout => 30,
                                     );

METHODS
       Unless otherwise stated all methods return either a true or false value, with true meaning that the
       operation was a success. When a method states that it returns a value, failure will be returned as
       undef or an empty list.

       banner ()
           Returns the banner message which the server replied with when the initial connection was made.

       domain ()
           Returns the domain that the remote SMTP server identified itself as during connection.

       hello ( DOMAIN )
           Tell the remote server the mail domain which you are in using the EHLO command (or HELO if EHLO
           fails).  Since this method is invoked automatically when the Net::SMTP object is constructed the
           user should normally not have to call it manually.

       host ()
           Returns the value used by the constructor, and passed to IO::Socket::INET, to connect to the
           host.

       etrn ( DOMAIN )
           Request a queue run for the DOMAIN given.

       auth ( USERNAME, PASSWORD )
           Attempt SASL authentication.

       mail ( ADDRESS [, OPTIONS] )
       send ( ADDRESS )
       send_or_mail ( ADDRESS )
       send_and_mail ( ADDRESS )
           Send the appropriate command to the server MAIL, SEND, SOML or SAML. "ADDRESS" is the address of
           the sender. This initiates the sending of a message. The method "recipient" should be called for
           each address that the message is to be sent to.

           The "mail" method can some additional ESMTP OPTIONS which is passed in hash like fashion, using
           key and value pairs.  Possible options are:

            Size        => <bytes>
            Return      => "FULL" | "HDRS"
            Bits        => "7" | "8" | "binary"
            Transaction => <ADDRESS>
            Envelope    => <ENVID>     # xtext-encodes its argument
            ENVID       => <ENVID>     # similar to Envelope, but expects argument encoded
            XVERP       => 1
            AUTH        => <submitter> # encoded address according to RFC 2554

           The "Return" and "Envelope" parameters are used for DSN (Delivery Status Notification).

           The submitter address in "AUTH" option is expected to be in a format as required by RFC 2554, in
           an RFC2821-quoted form and xtext-encoded, or <> .

       reset ()
           Reset the status of the server. This may be called after a message has been initiated, but before
           any data has been sent, to cancel the sending of the message.

       recipient ( ADDRESS [, ADDRESS, [...]] [, OPTIONS ] )
           Notify the server that the current message should be sent to all of the addresses given. Each
           address is sent as a separate command to the server.  Should the sending of any address result in
           a failure then the process is aborted and a false value is returned. It is up to the user to call
           "reset" if they so desire.

           The "recipient" method can also pass additional case-sensitive OPTIONS as an anonymous hash using
           key and value pairs.  Possible options are:

             Notify  => ['NEVER'] or ['SUCCESS','FAILURE','DELAY']  (see below)
             ORcpt   => <ORCPT>
             SkipBad => 1        (to ignore bad addresses)

           If "SkipBad" is true the "recipient" will not return an error when a bad address is encountered
           and it will return an array of addresses that did succeed.

             $smtp->recipient($recipient1,$recipient2);  # Good
             $smtp->recipient($recipient1,$recipient2, { SkipBad => 1 });  # Good
             $smtp->recipient($recipient1,$recipient2, { Notify => ['FAILURE','DELAY'], SkipBad => 1 });  # Good
             @goodrecips=$smtp->recipient(@recipients, { Notify => ['FAILURE'], SkipBad => 1 });  # Good
             $smtp->recipient("$recipient,$recipient2"); # BAD

           Notify is used to request Delivery Status Notifications (DSNs), but your SMTP/ESMTP service may
           not respect this request depending upon its version and your site's SMTP configuration.

           Leaving out the Notify option usually defaults an SMTP service to its default behavior equivalent
           to ['FAILURE'] notifications only, but again this may be dependent upon your site's SMTP
           configuration.

           The NEVER keyword must appear by itself if used within the Notify option and "requests that a DSN
           not be returned to the sender under any conditions."

             {Notify => ['NEVER']}

             $smtp->recipient(@recipients, { Notify => ['NEVER'], SkipBad => 1 });  # Good

           You may use any combination of these three values 'SUCCESS','FAILURE','DELAY' in the anonymous
           array reference as defined by RFC3461 (see http://rfc.net/rfc3461.html for more information.
           Note: quotations in this topic from same.).

           A Notify parameter of 'SUCCESS' or 'FAILURE' "requests that a DSN be issued on successful
           delivery or delivery failure, respectively."

           A Notify parameter of 'DELAY' "indicates the sender's willingness to receive delayed DSNs.
           Delayed DSNs may be issued if delivery of a message has been delayed for an unusual amount of
           time (as determined by the Message Transfer Agent (MTA) at which the message is delayed), but the
           final delivery status (whether successful or failure) cannot be determined.  The absence of the
           DELAY keyword in a NOTIFY parameter requests that a "delayed" DSN NOT be issued under any
           conditions."

             {Notify => ['SUCCESS','FAILURE','DELAY']}

             $smtp->recipient(@recipients, { Notify => ['FAILURE','DELAY'], SkipBad => 1 });  # Good

           ORcpt is also part of the SMTP DSN extension according to RFC3461.  It is used to pass along the
           original recipient that the mail was first sent to.  The machine that generates a DSN will use
           this address to inform the sender, because he can't know if recipients get rewritten by mail
           servers.  It is expected to be in a format as required by RFC3461, xtext-encoded.

       to ( ADDRESS [, ADDRESS [...]] )
       cc ( ADDRESS [, ADDRESS [...]] )
       bcc ( ADDRESS [, ADDRESS [...]] )
           Synonyms for "recipient".

       data ( [ DATA ] )
           Initiate the sending of the data from the current message.

           "DATA" may be a reference to a list or a list. If specified the contents of "DATA" and a
           termination string ".\r\n" is sent to the server. And the result will be true if the data was
           accepted.

           If "DATA" is not specified then the result will indicate that the server wishes the data to be
           sent. The data must then be sent using the "datasend" and "dataend" methods described in
           Net::Cmd.

       expand ( ADDRESS )
           Request the server to expand the given address Returns an array which contains the text read from
           the server.

       verify ( ADDRESS )
           Verify that "ADDRESS" is a legitimate mailing address.

           Most sites usually disable this feature in their SMTP service configuration.  Use "Debug => 1"
           option under new() to see if disabled.

       help ( [ $subject ] )
           Request help text from the server. Returns the text or undef upon failure

       quit ()
           Send the QUIT command to the remote SMTP server and close the socket connection.

ADDRESSES
       Net::SMTP attempts to DWIM with addresses that are passed. For example an application might extract
       The From: line from an email and pass that to mail(). While this may work, it is not recommended.
       The application should really use a module like Mail::Address to extract the mail address and pass
       that.

       If "ExactAddresses" is passed to the constructor, then addresses should be a valid rfc2821-quoted
       address, although Net::SMTP will accept accept the address surrounded by angle brackets.

        funny user@domain      WRONG
        "funny user"@domain    RIGHT, recommended
        <"funny user"@domain>  OK
