You probably won't be able to install Net::IMAP::Simple , due to a dependency problem. This module depends upon a newer version of Net::SSLeay than the module bundled with sstrawberry - which fails to build under 64-bit Windows. The IO::Socket::SSL module also fails to build. It is as if those modules never expected to see an SSL module >= 1.0

If you could provide detailed information about what part of the build fails... I could possibly update the version required in the Makefile.PL. This is the first I've heard about it and I'll need more information to act on it in any way since I don't have any windows machines I would care to put Perl on -- Windows is a gaming platform if it's anything at all, and my game machine isn't set up as 64bit. http://static.cpantesters.org/distro/N/Net-IMAP-Simple.html Overall this sounds like a bug for Net::SSLeay and/or IO::Socket::SSL; can you tell me why this was submitted as a bug in an IMAP package? -- If riding in an airplane is flying, then riding in a boat is swimming. 116 jumps, 48.6 minutes of freefall, 92.9 freefall miles.
