=head1 NAME

Net::SMTP::SSL - SSL support for Net::SMTP

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use Net::SMTP::SSL;
  
  my $smtps = Net::SMTP::SSL->new("example.com", Port => 465);

=head1 DEPRECATED

B<Hey!  Read this!>

Since Net::SMTP v1.28 (2014-10-08), Net::SMTP itself has support for SMTP over
SSL, and also for STARTTLS.  Use Net::SMTP, not Net::SMTP::SSL.

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Implements the same API as L<Net::SMTP|Net::SMTP>, but uses
L<IO::Socket::SSL|IO::Socket::SSL> for its network operations. Due to
the nature of C<Net::SMTP>'s C<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 C<465> is usually what you want, and it's
not a pain to specify that.

For interface documentation, please see L<Net::SMTP|Net::SMTP>.
