Hi there,
I have a support logging script that handles in-bound emails, logs them in a database and sends notifications to various recipients.
I'm using Mail::Internet to carve up a message on STDIN thus

    $message = new Mail::Internet \*STDIN;
    $who_from = $message->head->get("From");
    $sent = $message->head->get("Date");
    $subject = $message->head->get("Subject"); 
    $content = join('',@{$message->body} );
[download]

This works perfect apart from PHB now requires the system to handle attachments. To be honest I'm quite stumped as to what happens to any attachments. I've scouerd CPAN and this site to no avail.

As always, any advice most welcome, especially if anybody knows of another mod that will deal with attachments.

Cheers Stew

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
