If TLS_allowed insists on authentication, then having it on by

Thanks Victor, but apparently this is actually a bug in Mail::Sender
that only revealed itself when they changed the TLS default to true
in 0.8.22.

I've temporarily disabled TLS in vacation.pl until it is fixed...
Why "temporarily"? It makes no sense to encrypt when sending to
127.0.0.1. You can't hide your plaintext from the O/S kernel.
Since the SMTP server is on port 25 only root can listen there, so
there is no reason to authenticate localhost:25 either.
True... hadn't really thought about it.
Thx again Victor...
