NAME

Mail::Field::AddrList - object representation of e-mail address lists

INHERITANCE

  Mail::Field::AddrList
    is a Mail::Field
 
 

SYNOPSIS

   use Mail::Field::AddrList;
 
   $to   = Mail::Field->new('To');
   $from = Mail::Field->new('From', 'poe@daimi.aau.dk (Peter Orbaek)');
   
   $from->create('foo@bar.com' => 'Mr. Foo', poe => 'Peter');
   $from->parse('foo@bar.com (Mr Foo), Peter Orbaek <poe>');
 
   # make a RFC822 header string
   print $from->stringify(),"\n";
 
   # extract e-mail addresses and names
   @addresses = $from->addresses(); # strings
   @names     = $from->names();     # strings
   @addr      = $from->addr_list(); # Mail::Address objects (v2.00)
 
   # adjoin a new address to the list
   $from->set_address('foo@bar.com', 'Mr. Foo');
 
 

DESCRIPTION

Defines parsing and formatting of address field, for the following fields: "To", "From", "Cc", "Reply-To", and "Sender".

All the normally used features of the address field specification of RFC2822 are implemented, but some complex (and therefore hardly ever used) constructs will not be inderstood. Use Mail::Message::Field::Full in MailBox if you need full RFC compliance.
