| Subject: | LWP::RobotUA from address required |
The most recent LWP::RobotUA seems to require a real email address, on line 1160 of Robot.pm the email value is set as 'FROM' leading to $@: "WWW::Robot: failed to create User Agent object: LWP::RobotUA from address required at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/WWW/Robot.pm line 1160". Simply updating the 'FROM' field to 'foo@bar.com' fixed the problem - did not investigate further. Updated: WWW/Robot.pm:1160...
eval { $self->{ 'AGENT' } = new LWP::RobotUA( 'NAME', 'foo@bar.com' ) };
