NAME

6       Net::DNS::Mailbox - DNS mailbox representation
7

SYNOPSIS

9           use Net::DNS::Mailbox;
10
11           $mailbox = Net::DNS::Mailbox->new('user@example.com');
12           $address = $mailbox->address;
13

DESCRIPTION

15       The Net::DNS::Mailbox module implements a subclass of DNS domain name
16       objects representing the DNS coded form of RFC822 mailbox address.
17
18       The Net::DNS::Mailbox1035 and Net::DNS::Mailbox2535 packages implement
19       mailbox representation subtypes which provide the name compression and
20       canonicalisation specified by RFC1035 and RFC2535.  These are necessary
21       to meet the backward compatibility requirements introduced by RFC3597.
22

METHODS

24   new
25           $mailbox = Net::DNS::Mailbox->new('John Doe <john.doe@example.com>');
26           $mailbox = Net::DNS::Mailbox->new('john.doe@example.com');
27           $mailbox = Net::DNS::Mailbox->new('john\.doe.example.com');
28
29       Creates a mailbox object representing the RFC822 mail address specified
30       by the character string argument. An encoded domain name is also
31       accepted for backward compatibility with Net::DNS 0.68 and earlier.
32
33       The argument string consists of printable characters from the 7-bit
34       ASCII repertoire.
35
36   address
37           $address = $mailbox->address;
38
39       Returns a character string containing the RFC822 mailbox address
40       corresponding to the encoded domain name representation described in
41       RFC1035 section 8.
