Mail::Builder relies heavily on the L module from the L distribution. The module will create the correct MIME bodies, headers and containers (multipart/mixed, multipart/related, multipart/alternative) depending on if you use attachments, HTML text and inline images. Addresses, attachments and inline images are handled as objects by helper classes: =over =item * L Stores an e-mail address and a display name. =item * Attachments: L and L This classes manages attachments which can be created either from files in the filesystem or from data in memory. =item * Inline images:L The Address: Mail::Builder::Image class manages images that should be displayed in the e-mail body. =item * L Helper class for handling list of varoius items (recipient lists, attachment lists, ...) =back =head1 METHODS =head2 Constructors =head3 new This is a simple constructor. It does not expect any parameters. =cut sub new { my $class = shift; my $obj = bless { boundary => 0, from => undef, reply => undef, organization=> undef, returnpath => undef, to => Mail::Builder::List->new('Mail::Builder::Address'), cc => Mail::Builder::List->new('Mail::Builder::Address'), bcc => Mail::Builder::List->new('Mail::Builder::Address'), priority => 3, subject => '', charset => 'utf-8', plaintext => undef, htmltext => undef, language => undef, attachment => Mail::Builder::List->new('Mail::Builder::Attachment'), image => Mail::Builder::List->new('Mail::Builder::Image'), messageid => undef, },$class; bless $obj,$class; return $obj; } =head2 Public methods =head3 stringify Returns the e-mail message as a string. This string can be passed to modules like L. This method is just a shortcut to C<$mb-Ebuild_message-Estringify> =cut sub stringify { my $obj = shift; return $obj->build_message->stringify; } =head3 build_message Returns the e-mail message as a MIME::Entity object. You can mess arround with the object, change parts, ... as you wish. Every time you call build_message the MIME::Entity object will be created, which can take some time if you are sending bulk e-mails. In order to increase the processing speed Mail::Builder::Attachment and Mail::Builder::Image entities will be cached and only rebuilt if something has changed. =cut sub build_message { my $obj = shift; croak(q[Recipient address missing]) unless ($obj->{'to'}->length()); croak(q[Sender address missing]) unless (defined $obj->{'from'}); croak(q[e-mail subject missing]) unless ($obj->{'subject'}); croak(q[e-mail content missing]) unless ($obj->{'plaintext'} || $obj->{'htmltext'}); croak(q[Invalid priority (only 1-5)]) unless (defined($obj->{'priority'}) && $obj->{'priority'} =~ /^[1-5]$/); # Set message ID $obj->{'messageid'} = Email::MessageID->new(); # Set header fields my %email_header = ( 'Top' => 1, 'From' => $obj->{'from'}->serialize, 'To' => $obj->{'to'}->join, 'Cc' => $obj->{'cc'}->join, 'Bcc' => $obj->{'bcc'}->join, 'Subject' => $obj->{'subject'}, 'Message-ID' => $obj->{'messageid'}, 'X-Priority' => $obj->{'priority'}, 'X-Mailer' => "Mail::Builder with MIME::Tools", ); # Set reply if (defined $obj->{'reply'}) { $email_header{'Reply-To'} = $obj->{'reply'}->serialize; } # Set language if (defined $obj->{'language'}) { $email_header{'Content-language'} = $obj->{'language'}; } # Set return path if (defined $obj->{'returnpath'}) { $obj->{'returnpath'}->name(undef); $email_header{'Return-Path'} = $obj->{'returnpath'}->serialize(); } elsif (defined $obj->{'reply'}) { $email_header{'Return-Path'} = $obj->{'reply'}->serialize(); } else { $email_header{'Return-Path'} = $obj->{'from'}->serialize(); } # Set organizsation $email_header{'Organization'} = $obj->{'organization'} if ($obj->{'organization'}); # Build e-mail entity my $mime_entity; if ($obj->{'attachment'}->length()) { $mime_entity = build MIME::Entity( %email_header, Type => 'multipart/mixed', Boundary => $obj->_get_boundary(), Encoding => 'binary', ); foreach ($obj->{'attachment'}->list()) { $mime_entity->add_part($_->serialize()); } $mime_entity->add_part($obj->_build_text(Top => 0)); } else { $mime_entity = $obj->_build_text(%email_header); } return $mime_entity; } =head2 Accessors =head3 from, returnpath, reply These accessors set/return the from and reply address as well as the returnpath for bounced messages. $obj->from(EMAIL[,NAME]) OR $obj->from(Mail::Builder::Address) This accessor always returns a Mail::Builder::Address object. To change the attribute value you can either supply a L object or scalar parameters which will be passed to Cnew>.

To alter the values you can either =over =item * Manipulate the L object (add, remove, ...) =item * Supply a L object. This will reset the current list and add the object to the list. =item * Supply a L object. The object replaces the old one. =item * Scalar values will be passed to Cnew> =back The L package provides some basic methods for manipulating the list of recipients. e.g. $obj->to->add(EMAIL[,NAME]) OR $obj->to->add(Mail::Builder::Address) =cut sub to { my $obj = shift; return $obj->_list('to',@_); } sub cc { my $obj = shift; return $obj->_list('cc',@_); } sub bcc { my $obj = shift; return $obj->_list('bcc',@_); } =head3 language e-mail text language =head3 messageid Message ID of the e-mail. Read only and available only after the C or C methods have been called. =head3 organization Accessor for the name of the senders organisation. =head3 prioriy Priority accessor. Accepts values from 1 to 5. The default priority is 3. =head3 subject e-mail subject accessor. Must be specified. =head3 charset Charset accessor. Defaults to 'utf-8'. =head3 htmltext HTML mail body accessor. =head3 plaintext Plaintext mail body accessor. This text will be autogenerated from htmltext if not provided by the user. Simple formating (e.g. , ) will be converted to pseudo formating. The following html tags will be transformed: =over =item * I, EM Italic text will be surounded by underscores. (_italic text_) =item * H1, H2, H3, ... Headlines will be replaced with two equal signs (== Headline) =item * STRONG, B Bold text will be marked by stars (*bold text*) =item * HR A horizontal rule is replaced with 60 dashes. =item * BR Single linebreak =item * P, DIV Two linebreaks =item * IMG Prints the alt text of the image if any. =item * A Prints the link url surrounded by brackets ([http://myurl.com text]) =item * UL, OL All list items will be indented with a tab and prefixed with a start (*) or an index number. =item * TABLE, TR, TD, TH Tables are converted into text using L =back =head3 attachment $obj->attachment(Mail::Builder::List) OR $obj->attachment(Mail::Builder::Attachment) OR $obj->attachment(PATH[,NAME,MIME]) This accessor always returns a Mail::Builder::List object. If you supply a L the list will be replaced. If you pass a Mail::Builder::Attachment object or a scalar path (with an optional name an mime type) the current list will be reset and the new attachment will be added. The L package provides some basic methods for manipulating the list of recipients. If you want to append an additional attachment to the list use $obj->attachment->add(PATH[,NAME,MIME]) OR $obj->attachment->add(Mail::Builder::Attachment) =cut sub attachment { my $obj = shift; return $obj->_list('attachment',@_); } =head3 image $obj->image(Mail::Builder::List) OR $obj->image(Mail::Builder::Image) OR $obj->image(PATH[,ID]) This accessor always returns a Mail::Builder::List object. If you supply a L the list will be replaced. If you pass a Mail::Builder::Image object or a scalar path (with an optional id) the current list will be reset and the new image will be added. The L package provides some basic methods for manipulating the list of recipients. If you want to append an additional attachment to the list use $obj->image->add(PATH[,ID]) OR $obj->image->add(Mail::Builder::Image) You can embed the image into the html mail body code by referencing the ID. If you don't provide an ID the lowercase filename without the extension will be used as the ID.
