Hello folks

I just canīt find any module that filters email headers correctly. I am using Email::Filter now. Maybe Iīm doing something wrong, so here it is. Itīs a little dirty yet, so please donīt mind that: 


   use Net::POP3;
   use Email::Filter;

    my $pop = Net::POP3->new($host);

    if ($pop->login($user, $pass) > 0) {
    
      my $msgnums = $pop->list; # hashref of msgnum => size
      
      foreach my $msgnum (keys %$msgnums) {
      
        my $msg = $pop->getfh($msgnum);
        
        my $message;        
        
           while (<$msg>) { $message .= $_; }
        
        my $mail = Email::Filter->new(data => $message);
        
        my $body = $mail->body;
        
        print $body;

        # $pop->delete($msgnum);
      }
    }

    $pop->quit;

Email::Filter says this is the body: 
This is a multi-part message in MIME format.

------=_NextPart_000_0025_01C5BE3F.21ECA0A0
Content-Type: text/plain;
    charset="Windows-1252"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

Hello

Just to test!

Bye!

Ok, I can strpe out the first block before the \n\n and the last one too. But is this is supposed to work will all mesages? Isnīt there a cleaner way? Also because I will need to treat attachments too, and now I donīt have a clue of how to do that. Maybe this dirty solution doesnīt work with emails carrying attachments.

Please give me a hand if you can

Thanks
