Here is all I have right now...

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use HTTP::Request::Common qw(POST);
use LWP::UserAgent;
use HTTP::Cookies;

my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;
push @{$ua->requests_redirectable}, 'POST';
$ua->cookie_jar(HTTP::Cookies->new(file => "lwpcookies.txt", autosave 
+=> 1));

my $req = POST 'http://www.mail.com/scripts/common/proxy.main', [
   action => 'login',
   show_frame => 'Enter',
   mail_language => 'us',
   login => 'your@mail.com',
   password => 'password',
];

my $res = $ua->request($req)->as_string;
print $res;

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":


  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:
    a, abbr, b, big, blockquote, br, caption, center, col, colgroup, dd, del, details, div, dl, dt, em, font, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hr, i, ins, li, ol, p, pre, readmore, small, span, spoiler, strike, strong, sub, summary, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, tr, tt, u, ul, wbr
  • You may need to use entities for some characters, as follows. (Exception: Within code tags, you can put the characters literally.)
            For:     Use:
    & &amp;
    < &lt;
    > &gt;
    [ &#91;
    ] &#93;
  • Link using PerlMonks shortcuts! What shortcuts can I use for linking?
