Description : Perl5 module for fast, object-oriented UNIX mailbox reading
This Perl module attempts to provide a simplified access to standard
UNIX-mailboxes (mboxes.) It offers only a subset of methods to get 'straight
to the point'. More sophisticated things can still be done by invoking any
method from MIME::Tools on the appropriate return values.
.
Mail::MboxParser has not been derived from Mail::Box and thus isn't acquainted
with it in any way. It, however, incorporates some invaluable hints by the
author of Mail::Box, Mark Overmeer.
This ITP is in preparation for another ITP, for the 'bugger' BTS
navigation program written in Perl with libgtk2-perl. Stay tuned for
that...
Initial packages are already available at
http://people.debian.org/~joshk/libmail-mboxparser-perl
This is my first Perl module, so I'm definitely looking for feedback.
