How to use Email::Sender::Transport::SMTP?

If I use: my $transport = Email::Sender::Transport::SMTP->new(some parameters)

PERL says: Can't locate object method "new" via package "Email::Sender::Transport::SMTP"

And yes, there is no sub new inside SMTP.pm

The module Email::Sender::Transport::SMTP is based on Moo. Those Moo framework will create the new sub automatically. So its okay that you dont find a new sub in the SMTP.pm file itself.

Do you have added the proper load statement for Email::Sender::Transport::SMTP to your source files? 

use Email::Sender::Transport::SMTP;

The mentioned error message comes up if the related module dont got loaded, e.g.

perl -e "my $transport = Email::Sender::Transport::SMTP->new();"
Can't locate object method "new" via package "Email::Sender::Transport::SMTP"

vs.

perl -e "use Email::Sender::Transport::SMTP; my $transport = Email::Sender::Transport::SMTP->new();"
[ALL OK]
