Sorry, I was a bit confused.
I think that Mail::Mailer can probably do what you are after,
but the current ldirectord code uses Mail::Send, which does
not apper to be able to access an SMTP server.
With regards to the patch, I think that it might be nice
to arrance things such that there are two functions,
one whcih contains the existing Mail::Send code, including
the call to "use Mail::Send;". One that includes your new code,
including any calls to use or require. And have ld_emailalert_send()
call one of these functions depending on if $SMTP is set or not.
