Re: Mail::Field Help Needed

You'll probably have to first extra manually install Mail::Field::Received from CPAN.

Simply installing Mail::Field doesn't install that module, and Mail::Field itself is just a base class which you need to enrich yourself with the knowledge about Received: headers.

I think you are on to something here. I thought if it was not installed I'd get an error but apparently not. I tried to install it anyway and expected the 'up to date' message. However, that did not happen and it really tried to install it. Unfortunately it would not install and I cannot see why. Here is my output: Mail-Field-Received-0.24/MANIFEST CPAN: File::Temp loaded ok (v0.20) CPAN.pm: Going to build A/AS/ASPIERS/Mail-Field-Received-0.24.tar.gz Checking if your kit is complete... Looks good Writing Makefile for Mail::Field::Received cp Received.pm blib/lib/Mail/Field/Received.pm ASPIERS/Mail-Field-Received-0.24.tar.gz /usr/bin/make -- OK Running make test /usr/bin/perl.exe "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e" "test_harness(0, 'bli +b/lib', 'b lib/arch')" t/*.t t/all....1/18 stringify() not implemented at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/ +5.10/Mail/ Field.pm line 190 Mail::Field::stringify('Mail::Field::Received=HASH(0x101e2da0) +') called at t/all.t line 209 t/all.... Dubious, test returned 255 (wstat 65280, 0xff00) Failed 3/18 subtests [download] In this case it is not obvious why it is failing the tests. I can't tell what "stringify" it is trying to access but I've successfully used Mail::Field::stringify. I tried a force install but I still get the same error when I run my test script.
