Also fails with perl 5.24.1 & 5.24.0

Last working config was git 2.9.3 on perl 5.24.1

The relevant code from git-send-email is:

            require Net::SMTP;
            $smtp_domain ||= maildomain();
            $smtp_server_port ||= 25;
            $smtp ||= Net::SMTP->new($smtp_server,
                         Hello => $smtp_domain,
                         Debug => $debug_net_smtp,
                         Port => $smtp_server_port);
            if ($smtp_encryption eq 'tls' && $smtp) {
                require Net::SMTP::SSL;
                $smtp->command('STARTTLS');

I really wish git bundled its non-core perl libs...
