[freeside] getting error when trying to send email.

[Kirk Moore - aa.net]

heres the output of that. I'm swamped with another project so I can't dig into the lib myself or I would right now. Maybe Saturday.

            'Body' => [ $cust_bill->print_text ], #( date)
          );
          $message->smtpsend([ 'Debug'=>1 ]) or die "Can't send invoice email!";
 #die?  warn?

        } elsif ( ! @invoicing_list || grep { $_ eq 'POST' } @invoicing_list ) {
          open(LPR, "|$lpr") or die "Can't open pipe to $lpr: $!";
          print LPR $cust_bill->print_text; #( date )
          close LPR
            or die $! ? "Error closing $lpr: $!"
                         : "Exit status $? from $lpr";
        }

        my %hash = $cust_bill->hash;

the smtp host is set in smtpmachine as well to mail.terrabox.com and that config is the same as it's allways been.

	it was only the upgrade to debian woody that did it to me. I'm wondering if it's that library that was messed up.

heres the packages that I have installed....
