NAME<\/a> Mail::Util \u2212 mail utility functions<\/p>\n Mail::Util use Mail::Util qw( … );<\/p>\n This package provides several mail related utility functions. Any function required must by explicitly listed on the use line to be exported into the calling package.<\/p>\n mailaddress<\/b>( [$address] )<\/p>\n Return a guess at the current users mail address. The user can force the return value by setting the MAILADDRESS<\/small> environment variable. [2.10] You may set the $address via the parameter.<\/p>\n WARNING:<\/small> When not supplied via the environment variable, example:<\/p>\n # in your main script maildomain<\/b>()<\/p>\n Attempt to determine the current user mail domain string via the following methods<\/p>\n \u2022<\/p>\n<\/td>\n Look for the MAILDOMAIN<\/small> environment variable, which can be set from outside the program. This is by far the best way to configure the domain.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n \u2022<\/p>\n<\/td>\n Look for a sendmail.cf file and extract DH<\/small> parameter<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n \u2022<\/p>\n<\/td>\n Look for a smail config file and usr the first host defined in hostname(s)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n \u2022<\/p>\n<\/td>\n Try an SMTP<\/small> connect (if Net::SMTP exists) first to mailhost then localhost<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n \u2022<\/p>\n<\/td>\n Use value from Net::Domain::domainname (if Net::Domain exists)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n WARNING:<\/small> On modern machines, there is only one good way to provide information to this method: the first; always explicitly configure the MAILDOMAIN.<\/small><\/p>\n example:<\/p>\n # in your main script read_mbox<\/b>($file)<\/p>\n Read $file, a binmail mailbox file, and return a list of references. Each reference is a reference to an array containing one message.<\/p>\n WARNING:<\/small> This method does not quote lines which accidentally also start with the message separator “From”, so this implementation can be considered broken. See Mail::Box::Mbox<\/p>\n This module is part of the MailTools distribution, http:\/\/perl.overmeer.net\/mailtools\/<\/i>.<\/p>\n The MailTools bundle was developed by Graham Barr. Later, Mark Overmeer took over maintenance without commitment to further development.<\/p>\n
