Hello again,

Hopefully a quick question. I want to be able to get into a remote mailbox at godaddy. I was going to use PHP for this, but the server I have doesn't have imap_open() and I found it's not too easy to add it to an already running PHP install.

With that said, I found numerous posts about Mail::POP3Client() figured I'd give it a try. I first ran it and found it was not installed. I found a blogpost about cpan and got it installed. Now when I run it, it pauses as if it is doing something, but then I get this error:

Use of uninitialized value $line in pattern match (m//) at /usr/local/share/perl/5.14.2/Mail/POP3Client.pm line 1078, <GEN0> line 2.

use Mail::POP3Client;
use strict;
use warnings;
my $pop = new Mail::POP3Client( USER => "{username}",
            PASSWORD => "{mypassword}",
            HOST => "pop.secureserver.net" );
my $i=1;
for($i=1;$i<=$pop->Count();$i++){
    foreach($pop->Head($i)){
        /^(From|Subject):\s+/i && print $_, "\n";
    }
}
$pop->Close();

Thanks! I hope I get this working!
