INSTALL Mail::Box
Usually, you install any perl module simply by calling
# perl -MCPAN -e 'install Mail::Box'
but if you want to do it manually, then execute the following.
First unpack the archive:
# tar xzf Mail-Box-2*.tar.gz
# cd Mail-Box-2.*[0-9]
Then
# perl Makefile.PL
# make test
# make install
