My suggestion to create a dummy file was to check the other parts of the process, not just the secure connection so that you can be sure you are getting to the right path and that the id you connect with can actually read a file with the same permissions. Without that, you are not really testing it properly.
It doesn't have to be a large file if you are worried about the network traffic and time.
Can I presume that you are building up a remote path/filename in your script? If so, are you sure you can get to it? That is the point of testing with a dummy file.

net::smtp::server::relay
Server::Relay(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Server::Relay(3pm)
NAME
Net::SMTP::Server::Relay - A simple relay module for Net::SMTP::Server.
SYNOPSIS
use Carp;
use Net::SMTP::Server;
use Net::SMTP::Server::Client;
use Net::SMTP::Server::Relay;
$server = new Net::SMTP::Server('localhost', 25) ||
croak("Unable to handle client connection: $!
");
while($conn = $server->accept()) {
# We can perform all sorts of checks here for spammers, ACLs,
# and other useful stuff to check on a connection.
# Handle the client's connection and spawn off a new parser.
# This can/should be a fork() or a new thread,
# but for simplicity...
my $client = new Net::SMTP::Server::Client($conn) ||
croak("Unable to handle client connection: $!
");
# Process the client. This command will block until
# the connecting client completes the SMTP transaction.
$client->process || next;
# In this simple server, we're just relaying everything
# to a server. If a real server were implemented, you
# could save email to a file, or perform various other
# actions on it here.
my $relay = new Net::SMTP::Server::Relay($client->{FROM},
$client->{TO},
$client->{MSG});
}
DESCRIPTION
The Net::SMTP::Server::Relay module implements simple SMTP relaying for use with the Net::SMTP::Server module. All this module does is to
take a given message and iterate through the list of recipients, doing DNS lookups for the associated MX record and delivering the
messages. This module makes extensive use of the plethora of other modules already implemented for Perl (specifically the DNS and
Net::SMTP modules in this case), and should give but a glimpse of the potential for extending the Net::SMTP::Server's functionality to
provide a full-featured SMTP server, native to Perl.
The above example illustrates the use of the Net::SMTP::Server::Relay modules -- you simply have to instantiate the module, passing along
the sender, recipients, and message. More formally:
$relay = new Net::SMTP::Server::Relay($from, @to, $msg);
Where $from is the sender, @to is an array containing the list of recipients, and $msg is the message to relay.
