Output will be as follows.
Code:
Mario,Rossi,"Mario Rossi[External]",m.rossi_ext@mydomain.com,$TRUE,
John,Doe,"John Doe[External]",j.doe_ext@mydomain.com,$TRUE,

Thanks,

NAME

       Net::DNS::Mailbox - DNS mailbox representation

SYNOPSIS

	   use Net::DNS::Mailbox;

	   $mailbox = new Net::DNS::Mailbox('user@example.com');
	   $address = $mailbox->address;

DESCRIPTION

       The Net::DNS::Mailbox module implements a subclass of DNS domain name objects representing the DNS coded form of RFC822 mailbox address.

METHODS

   new
	   $mailbox = new Net::DNS::Mailbox('John.Doe@example.com');
	   $mailbox = new Net::DNS::Mailbox('John Doe <j.doe@example.com>');

       Creates a mailbox object which represents the DNS domain encoded form of the mail address specified by the character string argument.

       The argument string consists of printable characters from the 7-bit ASCII repertoire.

   address
	   $address = $mailbox->address;

       Returns a character string containing the RFC822 mailbox address corresponding to the encoded domain name representation described in
       RFC1035 section 8.

DOMAIN NAME COMPRESSION AND CANONICALISATION

       The Net::DNS::Mailbox1035 and Net::DNS::Mailbox2535 subclass packages implement RFC1035 domain name compression and RFC2535
       canonicalisation.
