Subject: "date()" in newer versions of Mail::Box::Mbox::Message
In versions 2.082 & 2.083 of Mail::Box::Mbox::Message, I get the following error that I do not get with identical code in version 2.042: Method date() is not defined for a Mail::Box::Mbox::Message. at blah/Mail-Box-2.083/blib/lib//Mail/Reporter.pm line 230 Mail::Reporter::AUTOLOAD('Mail::Box::Mbox::...') called at blah/Mail-Box-2.083/blib/lib//Mail/Message/Construct.pm line 66 Mail::Message::AUTOLOAD('Mail::Box::Mbox::...') called at ./mbox.pl line 16 Here's the code: my $mbox = Mail::Box::Mbox->new( 'folder' => $someMbox, ); foreach my $message ($mbox->messages('ALL')) { print $message->date() . "\n"; } Cheers :)

The manual-page says: $obj->date Method has been removed for reasons of consistency. Use timestamp() or $msg->head->get('Date'). Commands like $msg->subject and $msg->from, etc are all smart: they interpret the field content. Their $head->subject and $head->from companions are dumb, returning the pure field content. The $msg->date you used was dumb, so not following the concept. The change was released in version 2.055: Sun May 16 15:41:59 CEST 2004 and suggested by David Golden. -- Regards, MarkOv ------------------------------------------------------------------------ drs Mark A.C.J.

No additional remarks received, so probably ignored by the requestor.
