There are now packages for PPM available as well! See below the bits on
installation to learn how to install those.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mail::MboxParser is a module for working with UNIX-flavoured mailboxes.
This document describes version 0.51.
Its purpose is to _easily_ extract messages from a mailbox with _simple_
access to header fields, body and MIME-parts. It is for those people who
find the above two module-sets too confusing and heavy-weighted. See the
list of provided methods below.
It is particularly easy to deal with any kind of attached files. See the
supplied store_att.pl script for an example.
Prerequisites:
--------------
+ MIME::Tools (probably >= 5.0)
+ MIME::QuotedPrint (don't know which version)
optional:
+ Mail::Mbox::MessageParser (highly recommended but not necessary)
+ URI::Find if you want to use Mail::MboxParser::Mail::Body->extract_urls
+ Encode (standard module for >= perl5.8.0)
Installation:
-------------
'make'-enabled systems:
-----------------------
Un'tar xfz' the module and 'cd' into the new directory
Mail-MboxParser-$VERSION.
Then install:
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install
Win-users having an 'nmake' installed can also do the above, given the
fact they replace 'make' with 'nmake' in the above list.
Win-systems:
------------
There should be ppm distributions for ActivePerl under Windows.
For ActivePerl 5.6.x:
ppm install
http://www-users.rwth-aachen.de/tassilo.parseval/ppm/mail-mboxparser/0.47/5.6/Mail-MboxParser.ppd
For ActivePerl 5.8.x:
ppm install
http://www-users.rwth-aachen.de/tassilo.parseval/ppm/mail-mboxparser/0.47/5.8/Mail-MboxParser.ppd
If the appropriate package cannot be found, please bug the author.
Autoloader:
-----------
Read the Mail::MboxParser::Mail docs for invoking external methods.
The autoloading-mechanism will take care that the below and other things
will work:
$mail->effective_type; # from MIME::Entity
Have a look into the eg-directory of the package for some (or one) example(s).
Contact:
--------
Bugs, feature requests, questions, comments etc. should be directly
mailed to me.
