NAME
Net::DNS::Mailbox - DNS mailbox representation
SYNOPSIS
use Net::DNS::Mailbox;
$mailbox = new Net::DNS::Mailbox('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.
METHODS
new
$mailbox = new Net::DNS::Mailbox('John Doe <john.doe AT example.com>');
$mailbox = new Net::DNS::Mailbox('john.doe AT example.com');
$mailbox = new Net::DNS::Mailbox('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.
DOMAIN NAME COMPRESSION AND CANONICALISATION
The Net::DNS::Mailbox1035 and Net::DNS::Mailbox2535 subclass packages
implement RFC1035 domain name compression and RFC2535 canonicalisation.
