assuming that you are as concerned about 'viri' - you might want
to ship your email as 'plain text' - so that those of us who are
even MORE paranoid than you do not have to do OpSec Work to
deconstruct your rich text attachments.....

but on to your questions:

The net::Foo is in

        http://search.cpan.org/search?dist=libnet

the cheeseballs are up to 1.12 - fremonge....
but the changelog says these are about Net::SMTP
and Net::FTP - so essentially not that different
from the 1.11 release I run on darwin|solaris|linux.

If you download the source you can do any and all checking
that you feel required prior to installation system wide.
{ those of you from the BUNDLE and Autoload.... I love you,
you are wonderful folks.... but.... see caveat below....}
{ for additional fun, if you are bored, scope out the NSA's
release of their modifications to the linux kernel and see
if you can find the space aliens. }

CPAN style modules come with the basic

        perl Makefile.PL
        make
        make test
        make install

model for product upgrading.

so we presume that you already have your own secured
compiler and make utilities to begin with that have
been vetted by your OpSec team - if not, check with
them as to who is vetting your source code system...

How Paranoid is the drieux????
You really do not want to know. But let's just
say that I had to explain to the wankers who use
to laugh and giggle about wearing their

        'this is a weapons grade technology'

T-shirts - that its a bit late in the game for
them to be concerned about getting trapped out
at the Airport because they made some NationalAngstList
due to the fact that their email address and name are
all over so many pieces of code on the net....

DID these folks listen to me about 'tear off identities'
and the maintenance of off shore accounts not in
american dollars.....
