i supposed i guessed this, but didn't quite know how to go
about doing it. however, after more fumbling, and
installing Authen::SASL and MIME::Base64, i included the
following line in my app:
MIME::Lite->send ("smtp", "outgoing.verizon.net", Timeout=>90,
AuthUser=>"me", AuthPass=>"mypasswd");
whereupon success followed. it may not be the best way,
but at least it works.
tnx,
