Problems uploading Mail-SSLSigCheck

Hi Bruce, I’m one of the PAUSE admins. I can see that you’ve had problems uploading your distribution. One of the problems is that the toolchain expects your tarball to extract into a directory. Given your Makefile.PL, you can run the following to get the style of tarball expected by PAUSE:

In 2005 Nathan Lewis (NATHANL) uploaded module Spreadsheet::WriteExcel::WebPivot to CPAN, but he misnamed the distribution in a way that CPAN::DistnameInfo confused it with Spreadsheet-WriteExcel. This even confused PAUSE, if you looked at permissions for Spreadsheet-WriteExcel. I first tried t
