My Mozilla SMTP settings allow for using SSL never, if available,
or always, plus a "User Login" user name, which I had selected - the
plugin never fired.
Although it's firing with Netscape 7.1 on Windows, the auth is
failing (DECLINED) at the first test, which I suspect is related to the
failure of SMTP.pm line 227. Some information is not being propagated.
Also, it doesn't help that the POD for the auth can be interpreted
in a couple different ways and there is not one solid example of an entry
in the config/auth_flat_file and what the mail program must do to match
it.
