NAME
Net::DNS::Mailbox - DNS mailbox representation
SYNOPSIS
use Net::DNS::Mailbox;
$mailbox = Net::DNS::Mailbox->new('user AT example.com');
$address = $mailbox->address;
DESCRIPTION
The Net::DNS::Mailbox module implements a subclass of DNS domain name objects representing
the DNS coded form of RFC822 mailbox address.
The Net::DNS::Mailbox1035 and Net::DNS::Mailbox2535 packages implement mailbox
representation subtypes which provide the name compression and canonicalisation specified
by RFC1035 and RFC2535. These are necessary to meet the backward compatibility
requirements introduced by RFC3597.
METHODS
new
$mailbox = Net::DNS::Mailbox->new('John Doe <john.doe AT example.com>');
$mailbox = Net::DNS::Mailbox->new('john.doe AT example.com');
$mailbox = Net::DNS::Mailbox->new('john\.doe.example.com');
Creates a mailbox object representing the RFC822 mail address specified by the character
string argument. An encoded domain name is also accepted for backward compatibility with
Net::DNS 0.68 and earlier.
The argument string consists of printable characters from the 7-bit ASCII repertoire.
address
$address = $mailbox->address;
Returns a character string containing the RFC822 mailbox address corresponding to the
encoded domain name representation described in RFC1035 section 8.
