Bug Description
I am running Ubuntu 13.04 and Prey 0.5.3-7.1.
When configuring Prey to report by e-mail instead of using Prey's website, it is not able to send e-mails using GMail's SMTP server. The error provided by pray.sh is:
-- Posting data via email...
invalid SSL_version specified at /usr/share/
Apparently this is related to this bug I found on the sendemail Debian package (which uses the same Perl dependency): http://
Also, it seems this problem was not fixed upstream, as a similar bug report for a newer Prey version (0.5.9) is unanswered on the developer's website: http://

Confirming, needs the same fix as sendemail - because prey includes a convenience copy of the sendemail script.
