Hello all,

Although I have done this same thing in PHP and Java before I have an urgent need to accomplish it in Perl due to specific requirements.

What I need is to write an application that:
- Access a pop3 remote account
- Iterate through the list of messages on the server
- Download the attachments and save them localy on the machine
- delete all downloaded messages

requirements:
- only attachments ending with .txt and .zip should be saved, the rest must be ignored.


OK, so I need help and directions on this.

What are the Perl CPAN modules to achieve it? Browsing CPAN I found: Net-POP3_auth-0.03.tar.gz and Mail-POP3Client-2.16.tar.gz.

However I do not know how can I handle the mime attachment requirement. Read the MIME body, save the attachment with its original name and only .txt and .zip files.

After that, I will need to unzip all the .zip files saved to check inside and do some processing.

I appreacite any help, any links to articles that teach how to do it in perl.

Thanks in advance,

C.F.
