SYNOPSIS

9         #!/usr/bin/perl
10
11         use Mail::Mbox::MessageParser;
12
13         my $filename = 'mail/saved-mail';
14         my $filehandle = new FileHandle($filename);
15
16         my $folder_reader =
17           new Mail::Mbox::MessageParser( {
18             'file_name' => $filename,
19             'file_handle' => $filehandle,
20           } );
21
22         die $folder_reader unless ref $folder_reader;
23
24         # Any newlines or such before the start of the first email
25         my $prologue = $folder_reader->prologue;
26         print $prologue;
27
28         # This is the main loop. It's executed once for each email
29         while(!$folder_reader->end_of_file());
30         {
31           my $email = $folder_reader->read_next_email();
32           print $$email;
33         }

DESCRIPTION

36       This module implements a Perl-based mbox folder reader.  Users must not
37       instantiate this class directly--use Mail::Mbox::MessageParser instead.
38       The base MessageParser module will automatically manage the use of
39       faster implementations if they can be used.
40
41   METHODS AND FUNCTIONS
42       The following methods and functions are specific to the
43       Mail::Mbox::MessageParser::Perl package. For additional inherited ones,
44       see the Mail::Mbox::MessageParser documentation.
45
46       $ref = new( { 'file_name' => <mailbox file name>, 'file_handle' =>
47       <mailbox file handle> });
48               <file_name> - The full filename of the mailbox
49               <file_handle> - An opened file handle for the mailbox
50
51           The constructor for the class takes two parameters. The optional
52           file_name parameter is the filename of the mailbox. The required
53           file_handle argument is the opened file handle to the mailbox.
54
55           Returns a reference to a Mail::Mbox::MessageParser object, or a
56           string describing the error.
57
58       end_of_file()
59       reset()
60       read_next_email()
61           These methods are overridden in this subclass of
62           Mail::Mbox::MessageParser.
