I agree that $smtp->message may be bogus at this point, but could
"require IO::Socket::SSL" have failed on us in ssl_verify_params?
In that degraded mode, we do not do SSL peer verification, but
otherwise we would still attempt to talk with the peer, and in such
a case, IO::Socket::SSL would not be available to us at this point,
no?
