From: "PEAR Announce" on
The new PEAR package Net_SMTP-1.4.1 (stable) has been released at http://pear.php.net/.

Release notes
-------------
The auth() method now includes an optional $tls parameter that determines whether or not TLS should be attempted (if supported by the PHP runtime and the remote SMTP server). This parameter defaults to true. (Bug #16349)

Header data can be specified separately from message body data by passing it as the optional second parameter to ``data()``. This is especially useful when an open file resource is being used to supply message data because it allows header fields (like *Subject:*) to be built dynamically at runtime. (Request #17012)

Package Info
------------
Provides an implementation of the SMTP protocol using PEAR's Net_Socket class.
