NAME
       MailTools - bundle of ancient email modules
SYNOPSIS
        # This is a place-holder for the distribution
DESCRIPTION
       MailTools is a bundle: an ancient form of combining packages into one
       distribution.  Gladly, it can be distributed as if it is a normal
       distribution as well.
       Be warned: The code you find here is very old.  It works for simple
       emails, but when you start with new code then please use more
       sofisticated libraries.  The main reason that you still find this code
       on CPAN, is because many books use it as example.
   Component
       In this distribution, you find
       Mail::Address
           Parse email address from a header line.
       Mail::Cap
           Interpret mailcap files: mappings of file-types to applications as
           used by many command-line email programs.
       Mail::Field
           Simplifies access to (some) email header fields.  Used by
           Mail::Header.
       Mail::Filter
           Process Mail::Internet messages.
       Mail::Header
           Collection of Mail::Field objects, representing the header of a
           Mail::Internet object.
       Mail::Internet
           Represents a single email message, with header and body.
       Mail::Mailer
           Send Mail::Internet emails via direct smtp or local MTA's.
       Mail::Send
           Build a Mail::Internet object, and then send it out using
           Mail::Mailer.
       Mail::Util
           "Smart functions" you should not depend on.
