Bug Description

Binary package hint: sendemail

After installing sendEmail using "sudo apt-get install sendEmail" and try to send an e-mail I get the error:

    sendEmail[22362]: ERROR => No TLS support! SendEmail can't load required libraries. (try installing Net::SSLeay and IO::Socket::SSL)

After install the packages "libio-socket-ssl-perl" and "libnet-ssleay-perl" it works fine.

Starting with sendEmail v1.54, TLS support is included. tls=auto is the default (ie. TLS will be used if possible) so I think that adding libio-socket-ssl-perl and libnet-ssleay-perl as Suggests makes sense.

This bug was fixed in the package sendemail - 1.55-1ubuntu1

---------------
sendemail (1.55-1ubuntu1) intrepid; urgency=low

  * Add libio-socket-ssl-perl and libnet-ssleay-perl as Suggests (LP: #237964).
    Since sendEmail v1.54, TLS support is included but not used by default.
    These perl modules are necessary to use this functionality if specified
    with the -o tls=yes command line option.
  * Modify Maintainer value to match the DebianMaintainerField
    specification.

Using Ubuntu 12.04 3.2.0-33-generic #52 i586 i586 i386 and sendemail 1.56-2 I still have to install:
libio-socket-ssl-perl and libnet-ssleay-perl for it to work.
Sendemail only installs: libio-socket-inet6-perl and libsocket6-perl
