Mail::MboxParser::Mail::Convertable is a Perl module that can convert mail for sending etc.

SYNOPSIS

use Mail::MboxParser;

[...]

# $msg is a Mail::MboxParser::Mail-object
my $mail = $msg->make_convertable;

$mail->delete_from_header(date, message-id);
$mail->replace_in_header(to, john.doe@foobar.com);
$mail->add_to_header( [cc, john.does.brother@foobar.com],
where => BEHIND );
$mail->send(sendmail);

This class adds means to convert an email object into something that could be send via SMTP, NNTP or dumped to a file or filehandle. Therefore, methods are provided that change the structure of an email which includes adding and removing of header-fields, MIME-parts etc and transforming them into objects of related modules.

Currently, only basic manipulation of the header and sending using Mail::Mailer is provided. More is to come soon.

This class works non-destructive. You first create a Convertable-object and do any modifications on this while the Mail-object from which it was derived will not be touched.

tidyup-mail software is especially useful for russian/ukrainian/belarusian users but however can help those who reads mail from people that uses such brain-damaged web-mailers as yahoo mail.

Mail::Action is a Perl module for building modules that act on incoming mail.

SYNOPSIS

use base Mail::Action;

Sometimes, you just need a really simple mailing address to last for a few days. You want it to be easy to create and easy to use, and you want it to be sufficiently anonymous that your real address isnt ever exposed.

Mail::TempAddress, Mail::TempAddress::Addresses, and Mail::TempAddress::Address make it easy to create a temporary mailing address system.

headline => "Foo Mailing Lists",
lists => @lists,
prolog => &prolog,
epilog => &epilog,
);

$renderer->render();

use Mail::Sendmail;
%mail = ( To => you@there.com,
From => me@here.com,
Message => "This is a very short message"
);
sendmail(%mail) or die $Mail::Sendmail::error;
print "OK. Log says:n", $Mail::Sendmail::log;
Simple platform independent e-mail from your perl script. Only requires Perl 5 and a network connection.
Mail::Sendmail contains mainly &sendmail, which takes a hash with the message to send and sends it. It is intended to be very easy to setup and use.
Main features:
- Automatic time zone detection, Date: header, MIME quoted-printable encoding (if MIME::QuotedPrint installed), all of which can be overridden.
- Bcc: and Cc: support.
- Allows real names in From:, To: and Cc: fields
- Doesnt send an X-Mailer: header (unless you do), and allows you to send any header(s) you want.
- Configurable retries and use of alternate servers if your mail server is down
- Good plain text error reporting
Version restrictions:
- Headers are not encoded, even if they have accented characters.
- No suport for the SMTP AUTH extension.
- Since the whole message is in memory, its not suitable for sending very big attached files.
- The SMTP server has to be set manually in Sendmail.pm or in your script, unless you have a mail server on localhost.
- Doesnt work on OpenVMS, I was told. Cannot test this myself.
