NAME

Mail::Abuse::Reader::POP3 - Reads a Mail::Abuse::Report out of a POP3 account

SYNOPSIS

  use Mail::Abuse::Report;
  use Mail::Abuse::Reader::POP3;
  my $r = new Mail::Abuse::Reader::POP3;
  my $report = new Mail::Abuse::Report (reader => $r);

DESCRIPTION

This class reads in each message in a POP3 mailbox into the text of a Mail::Abuse::Report object.

A number of configuration keys are used for establishing the operational parameters. These config keys are described below:

pop3 server: Must be set to the name or address of the POP3 server where reports are to be fetched from.
pop3 username: The username used for the POP3 session.
pop3 password: The corresponding password.
pop3 delete: Set to a true value to cause messages to be deleted after reading them.
pop3 filter: A regular expression that, if matches, discards the current message. This is useful to avoid processing bounces.
pop3 debug: If set to a true value, debug messages will be sent through warn().

The following methods are implemented within this class.

read($report)

Populates the text of the given $report using the ->text method. Must return true if succesful or false otherwise.

DESTROY: In order to effectively delete any messages, this method terminates gracefully the POP3 session using the ->quit method of Net::POP3.

EXPORT

None by default.
