NAME 🖥️ Mail_Addresspm 🖥️

parse mail addresses

SYNOPSIS

use Mail::Address; my @addrs = Mail::Address->parse($line); foreach $addr (@addrs) { print $addr->format," “; }

DESCRIPTION

Mail::Address extracts and manipulates email addresses from a message header. It cannot be used to extract addresses from some random text. You can use this module to create RFC822 compliant fields.

Although Mail::Address is a very popular subject for books, and is used in many applications, it does a very poor job on the more complex message fields. It does only handle simple address formats (which covers about 95% of what can be found). Problems are with

• no support for address groups, even not with the semi-colon as separator between addresses;

• limited support for escapes in phrases and comments. There are cases where it can get wrong; and

• you have to take care of most escaping when you create an address yourself: Mail::Address does not do that for you.

Often requests are made to the maintainers of this code improve this situation, but this is not a good idea, where it will break zillions of existing applications. If you wish for a fully RFC2822 compliant implementation you may take a look at Mail::Message::Field::Full, part of MailBox.

. Example

my $s = Mail::Message::Field::Full->new($from_header); # ref $s isa Mail::Message::Field::Addresses; my @g = $s->groups; # all groups, at least one # ref $g[0] isa Mail::Message::Field::AddrGroup; my $ga = $g[0]->addresses; # group addresses my @a = $s->addresses; # all addresses # ref $a[0] isa Mail::Message::Field::Address;

METHODS

Constructors

Mail::Address->new( $phrase, $address, [ $comment ] )
Create a new Mail::Address object which represents an address with the elements given. In a message these 3 elements would be seen like: PHRASE <ADDRESS> (COMMENT) ADDRESS (COMMENT) example: Mail::Address->new(“Perl5 Porters”, “[email protected]”);

$obj->parse($line)
Parse the given line a return a list of extracted Mail::Address objects. The line would normally be one taken from a To,Cc or Bcc line in a message example: my @addr = Mail::Address->parse($line);

Accessors

$obj->address()
Return the address part of the object.

$obj->comment()
Return the comment part of the object

$obj->format(@addresses)
Return a string representing the address in a suitable form to be placed on a To, Cc, or Bcc line of a message. This method is called on the first address to be used; other specified addresses will be appended, separated by commas.

$obj->phrase()
Return the phrase part of the object.

Smart accessors

$obj->host()
Return the address excluding the user id and ‘@’

$obj->name()
Using the information contained within the object attempt to identify what the person or groups name is. Note: This function tries to be smart with the “phrase” of the email address, which is probably a very bad idea. Consider to use phrase() itself.

$obj->user()
Return the address excluding the ‘@’ and the mail domain
