Subject: Document that From and To must be bare email addresses
Please document that the "From" and "To" parameters must be a bare email address [ johndoe@example.com ], not an RFC2822 email address [ "John Q. Public" <john.q.public@example.com> (The EveryMan) ]. Otherwise, the way that this PoCo sends From and To addresses to the SMTP server will cause errors. An alternative would be to use Email::Address internally to parse them extract just the address part. This would allow easy use of email addresses extracted from message headers. -- David
fixed with POE::Component::Client::SMTP v0.21 documented the behavior in the POD in a latter release perhaps I'll use Email:: to handle the problem properly. -- Dodge this!
