NAME WWW::Hotmail - Connect to Hotmail and download messages SYNOPSIS use WWW::Hotmail; my $hotmail = new WWW::Hotmail; $hotmail->login('foo@hotmail.com', "bar"); for ($hotmail->messages) { $_->retrieve->accept; $_->delete; } DESCRIPTION This module is a partial replacement for the "gotmail" script (http://ssl.usu.edu/paul/gotmail/), so if this doesn't do what you want, try that instead. Create a new "WWW::Hotmail" object with "new", and then log in with your MSN username and password. Make sure to add the domain to your username, for example foo@hotmail.com. Then this will allow you to use the "messages" method to look at the mail in your inbox. This method returns a list of "WWW::Hotmail::Message"s; each message supports four methods: "subject" gives you the subject of the email, just because it was stunningly easy to implement. "retrieve" retrieves an email into a "Mail::Audit" object - see Mail::Audit for more details. "from" gives you the from field. Finally "delete" moves it to your trash. This module should work with email addresses at charter.com, compaq.net, hotmail.com, msn.com, passport.com, and webtv.net That's it. I said it was partial. SEE ALSO WWW::Mechanize, Mail::Audit, "gotmail" NOTE This module is reasonable fragile. It seems to work, but I haven't tested edge cases. If it breaks, you get to keep both pieces. I hope to improve it in the future, but this is enough for release. AUTHOR David Davis, - I've taken ownership of this module, please direct all questions to me.
