Subject: Sending mail
I've used MIME::Lite for the mail tasks I've had up till now and it
has worked very well. Now I need to send mail via a different port
than port 25, say port 587. As far as I can tell, MIME::Lite does not
have this capability.
You must have missed something. The $hostname and %options passed in
$mail->send('smtp', $hostname, %options);
are passed to Net::SMTP->new() and one of the available options is Port. So
$mail->send('smtp', 'hostname', Port => 587);
should work fine. The docs of the Net::* modules generaly leave a lot to be desired and the Port option is not documented (in Net::SMTP 2.29), but the code accepts it and I think it's very unlikely the option will go away.

Thank you very much Jenda. The docs are very cryptic in this regard. Perhaps not if you know the Net:: modules though (which I do not). This will be very helpful. Thank you.
