NAME
Mail::Field::AddrList − object representation of e−mail address lists
INHERITANCE
Mail::Field::AddrList
is a Mail::Field
SYNOPSIS
use Mail::Field::AddrList;
$to = Mail::Field−>new(‘To’);
$from = Mail::Field−>new(‘From’, ‘poe@daimi.aau.dk (Peter Orbaek)’);
$from−>create(‘foo@bar.com’ => ‘Mr. Foo’, poe => ‘Peter’);
$from−>parse(‘foo@bar.com (Mr Foo), Peter Orbaek
# make a RFC822 header string
print $from−>stringify(),”n”;
# extract e−mail addresses and names
@addresses = $from−>addresses(); # strings
@names = $from−>names(); # strings
@addr = $from−>addr_list(); # Mail::Address objects (v2.00)
# adjoin a new address to the list
$from−>set_address(‘foo@bar.com’, ‘Mr. Foo’);
DESCRIPTION
Defines parsing and formatting of address field, for the following fields: “To”, “From”, “Cc”, “Reply−To”, and “Sender”.
All the normally used features of the address field specification of RFC2822 are implemented, but some complex (and therefore hardly ever used) constructs will not be understood. Use Mail::Message::Field::Full in MailBox if you need full RFC compliance.

DIAGNOSTICS
Error: Undefined subroutine
Mail::Field objects use autoloading to compile new functionality. Apparently, the method called is not implemented for the specific class of the field object.
