Hi Roger, Many thanks for that example you posted. I assume that the mail folders are in the format of unix mboxes, ascii-mode, line-by-line. Yes, they are ascii-mode, with CR/LF's. When I tried the script, a message:
I then checked for Mail::Box, and it didn't appear to be part of the Active State Perl I have installed. I then used the PPM (version 3.0.1) and did an "install Mail::Box" command, it took about 10 mins, but said everything was okay. However, the same error message appeared. The PPM search for Mail::Box displayed
and that is all that was installed, just a file called "C.pm" in a folder D:\Perl\site\lib\Mail\Box\. I did download the file http://perl.overmeer.net/mailbox/source/source-current.tar.gz , and there is a Box.Pm in that file, but I don't know where to put it. No doubt somehow I should reference the 'tar' file in the PPM, for the install ? When I do a SET command at DOS, there are no environment variables for Perl ? I'm trying to read up more on the documentation also. Many thanks, Peter
