Mail::Miner version 2.0 ========================== If you install Mail::Miner and set it up so that mail is routed through Mail::Audit::Miner (see the documentation) or piped through mm_process, then attachments will be replaced by instructions about how to use the "mm" command-line utility to detach them. You also have a handy database of all your email that you can prod. :) See the "mm" tool for more details of how you can search this database for email addresses, phone numbers, physical addresses, and so on. INSTALLATION You will need mysql installed. To install this module, create a new Postgres database according to the schema in miner.sql, and give yourself access to it. Then type the following: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install Now you have to make sure your incoming mail gets processed by Mail::Miner. You can do this by putting a pipe to mm_process in your procmailrc, or, if you're using Mail::Audit, by using Mail::Audit::Miner. (Included in this distribution.) See the documentation for that module for more details. DEPENDENCIES This module requires these other modules and libraries: MIME::Parser Date::Manip Mail::Address Class::DB::mysql Lingua::EN::Keywords SUPPORT This software is currently unsupported. It hasn't eaten my mailbox, but I don't want to say it won't eat yours. But I find it useful, and you might too. COPYRIGHT AND LICENCE Copyright (C) 2002-2003 Simon Cozens. GPL & AL.
