Mail::Message::Construct::Read(User Contributed Perl DocumentaMail::Message::Construct::Read(3pm)
NAME
Mail::Message::Construct::Read - read a Mail::Message from a file handle
SYNOPSIS
my $msg1 = Mail::Message->read(\*STDIN);
my $msg2 = Mail::Message->read(\@lines);
DESCRIPTION
When complex methods are called on a "Mail::Message" object, this package is autoloaded to
support the reading of messages directly from any file handle.
METHODS
Constructing a message
Mail::Message->read(FILEHANDLE|SCALAR|REF-SCALAR|ARRAY-OF-LINES, OPTIONS)
Read a message from a FILEHANDLE, SCALAR, a reference to a SCALAR, or a reference to
an array of LINES. Most OPTIONS are passed to the new() of the message which is
created, but a few extra are defined.
Please have a look at build() and buildFromBody() before thinking about this "read"
method. Use this "read" only when you have a file-handle like STDIN to parse from, or
some external source of message lines. When you already have a separate set of head
and body lines, then "read" is certainly not your best choice.
Some people use this method in a procmail script: the message arrives at stdin, so we
only have a filehandle. In this case, you are stuck with this method. The message is
preceeded by a line which can be used as message separator in mbox folders. See the
example how to handle that one.
This method will remove "Status" and "X-Status" fields when they appear in the source,
to avoid the risk that these fields accidentally interfere with your internal
administration, which may have security implications.
Option --Default
body_type undef
strip_status_fields <true>
. body_type => CLASS
Force a body type (any specific implementation of a Mail::Message::Body) to be
used to store the message content. When the body is a multipart or nested, this
will be overruled.
. strip_status_fields => BOOLEAN
Remove the "Status" and "X-Status" fields from the message after reading, to lower
the risk that received messages from external sources interfere with your internal
administration. If you want fields not to be stripped (you would like to disable
the stripping) you probably process folders yourself, which is a Bad Thing!
example:
my $msg1 = Mail::Message->read(\*STDIN);
my $msg2 = Mail::Message->read(\@lines, log => 'PROGRESS');
$folder->addMessages($msg1, $msg2);
my $msg3 = Mail::Message->read(<<MSG);
Subject: hello world
To: you AT example.com
# warning: empty line required !!!
Hi, greetings!
MSG
# promail example
my $fromline = <STDIN>;
my $msg = Mail::Message->read(\*STDIN);
my $coerced = $mboxfolder->addMessage($msg);
$coerced->fromLine($fromline);
