MIME Email message class 2008.04.08 (Default branch)

Image The MIME Email message class composes and sends MIME encoded email messages. It features user-definable headers and body parts, support for plain text and HTML body, headers with non-ASCII text, HTML messages with embedded images, file attachments with content type detection, forwarding of messages as attachments, setting the error delivery address with the Return-Path header, and sub-classes for different delivery methods: mail, SMTP, Qmail, Sendmail, and Microsoft IIS or Exchange pickup folder. It also supports sending personalized bulk mail by replacing the message parts that differ for each recipient. License: BSD License (original) Changes:
The main class can now cache individual message parts that attach or embed files in messages. When sending personalized mailings to many recipients for whom such file parts do not change, this avoids the overhead of encoding those message parts again. The SMTP driver sub-class was enhanced to disconnect from the SMTP server after a given number of consecutive deliveries in bulk mail mode in order to avoid exceeding the limits imposed by certain SMTP servers.Image

NAME
Log::Dispatch::Email - Base class for objects that send log messages via email SYNOPSIS
package Log::Dispatch::Email::MySender use Log::Dispatch::Email; use base qw( Log::Dispatch::Email ); sub send_email { my $self = shift; my %p = @_; # Send email somehow. Message is in $p{message} } DESCRIPTION
This module should be used as a base class to implement Log::Dispatch::* objects that send their log messages via email. Implementing a subclass simply requires the code shown in the SYNOPSIS with a real implementation of the "send_email()" method. CONSTRUCTOR
The constructor takes the following parameters in addition to the standard parameters documented in Log::Dispatch::Output: o subject ($) The subject of the email messages which are sent. Defaults to "$0: log email" o to ($ or @) Either a string or a list reference of strings containing email addresses. Required. o from ($) A string containing an email address. This is optional and may not work with all mail sending methods. o buffered (0 or 1) This determines whether the object sends one email per message it is given or whether it stores them up and sends them all at once. The default is to buffer messages. METHODS
o send_email(%p) This is the method that must be subclassed. For now the only parameter in the hash is 'message'. o flush If the object is buffered, then this method will call the "send_email()" method to send the contents of the buffer and then clear the buffer. o DESTROY On destruction, the object will call "flush()" to send any pending email.
