SMTPErrorDectionIsNill?

Test case

I had a bit of trouble with my installation on friday. Please add a test to the bottom of lib/TWiki/Net.pm the Net::SMTP->new can fail. This failure does not give any good error messages. I got the failure when I forgot to set my smtp mail server and the SMTP server could not find a server with the default name.

I worry about checks on other library and system calls. Please verify that there are checks in place for all system and library calls which can fail.

Environment

TWiki version: 20010901
TWiki plugins: none
Server OS: all
Web server: all
Perl version: 5.6.0
