Overview

The Email::Simple class is one of the base objects used by the large set of Email* modules, which implement many e-mail needs which are also supported by MailBox. You can use this class to gradularly move from a Email* based implementation into a MailBox implementation.

The internals of this class are far from optimal. The conversion does work (thanks to Ricardo Signes), but is expensive in time and memory usage. It could easily be optimized.
