Ok the short version here is that the problem is solved. Both scripts now work. The solution (which doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me) was to change authentication values - namely the smtp server to connect to. Not sure what is going on with my provider - all my other devices continued to work with the values I was using in these scripts.
That said, even though the scripts work they both still get the error ".../IO/Socket/SSL.pm:1177: global error: Undefined SSL object" which may be of interest to someone.
So thank you perlfan and nysus for your help it made me question some assumptions that lead to the solution. (By the way perlfan your script now works for me as well.)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
