=head1 NAME
|
||
|
|
||
|
MailTools - bundle of ancient email modules
|
||
|
|
||
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
|
||
|
# This is a place-holder for the distribution
|
||
|
|
||
|
=head1 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.
|
||
|
|
||
|
B<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.
|
||
|
|
||
|
=head2 Component
