NAME

IO::Socket::CLI::POP3 - Command-line interface to a POP3 server.

VERSION

version 0.041

SYNOPSIS

 use IO::Socket::CLI::POP3;
 my $pop3 = IO::Socket::CLI::POP3->new(HOST => 'pop.mail.yahoo.com');
 $pop3->read();
 do {
     $pop3->prompt();
     $pop3->read();
 } while ($pop3->is_open());

DESCRIPTION

IO::Socket::CLI::POP3 provides a command-line interface to IO::Socket::INET6 and IO::Socket::SSL.

METHODS

See IO::Socket::CLI.

is_open()

Returns if the server hung up according to the last server response. Override as POP3 gives no special response for closing a connection, so this verifies an +OK response after sending a quit command.

BUGS

Does not verify SSL connections. Has not been tried with STARTTLS.
