NAME
    Mail::Box::FastScalar - fast alternative to IO::Scalar

DESCRIPTION
    Contributed by "Todd Richmond" (richmond AT proofpoint.com) This package should be released as
    separate package, but till then is incorporated in the Mail::Box module.

    Extremely fast IO::Scalar replacement - >20x improvement in getline(s)()

  Warnings
    You cannot modify the original reference between calls unless you "$obj-"seek(1, 0)> to reset
    the object - VERY rare usage case

    $/ must be undef or string - "" and \scalar unimplemented

SEE ALSO
    This module is part of Mail-Message distribution version 3.012, built on February 11, 2022.
