User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:49.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/49.0 Build ID: 20161019084923 Steps to reproduce: Upstream marked Net::SMTP::SSL as deprecated http://search.cpan.org/~rjbs/Net-SMTP-SSL-1.04/lib/Net/SMTP/SSL.pm However Net::SMTP::SSL is referenced in bugzilla 4.x, 5.x and current git in Bugzilla/Config/Common.pm and Makefile.pm Expected results: Code should be rewritten to use the suggested replacements From the current Net::SMTP::SSL description Implements the same API as Net::SMTP, but uses IO::Socket::SSL for its network operations. Due to the nature of Net::SMTP's 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 465 is usually what you want, and it's not a pain to specify that.
