You said that in 01/12, too but I do not think there is any problem with
Perl documentation.

My installed copy of /usr/share/perl/5.10.0/Net/SMTP.pm has this:

    B<Host> - SMTP host to connect to. It may be a single scalar, as defined for
    the C<PeerAddr> option in L<IO::Socket::INET>, or a reference to
    an array with hosts to try in turn. The L</host> method will return the value
    which was used to connect to the host.

and of course PeerAddr allows host:port.

Please stop placing a false blame on others.  I think it is you who lack
ability to read the documentation correctly in this particular case.
