Accessing e-mail through Perl 1

[qednick]

Hi all,

I can send mail from within a Perl cgi script no problem but when it comes to reading/accessing my mail I have problems.

I want to run a cgi script on my web server (unix) that can access my mail account and check for a particluar message. I've tried using [tt]Mail:OP3Client[/tt] module but it looks like this isn't supported on my web server. Is there another way I can do it? If so, any sample snippets of code would be greatly appreciated.

What about Net:OP3? Is that available to you?

jaa

I'm actually not sure - I'll give it a blast! Thanks!
