If so, the enhancement you are adding could be my @to_use; if ($smtp_auth_whitelist is supplied) { my @installed = Authen::SASL::list_mechanisms(); for (@installed) { if ($_ is whitelisted) { push @to_use, $_; } } } and @to_use can later be supplied when we open the connection as the list of mechanisms we allow the library to pick.
