Hello,
I installed from the ports the port p5-Mail-RFC822-Address to verify
mail addrs against RFC822; the example code provided by the author is:
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
use Mail::RFC822::Address qw(valid validlist);
if (valid("pdw@ex-parrot.com")) {
print "That's a valid address\n";
}
if (validlist("pdw@ex-parrot.com, other@elsewhere.com")) {
print "That's a valid list of addresses\n";
}
But I can only manage to get this working when doing the test as
if (valid("pdw@ex-parrot.com") == true) {
...
Why is this? I'm by no means a Perl expert :-)
Thx
matthias
