Name        : perl-Email-Simple
Product     : Fedora EPEL 5
Version     : 2.005
Release     : 1.el5
URL         : http://search.cpan.org/dist/Email-Simple/
Summary     : Simple parsing of RFC2822 message format and headers
Description :
"Email::Simple" is the first deliverable of the "Perl Email Project", a
reaction against the complexity and increasing bugginess of the
"Mail::*" modules. In contrast, "Email::*" modules are meant to be
simple to use and to maintain, pared to the bone, fast, minimal in their
external dependencies, and correct.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This update offers various bug-fixes and enhancements, plus the removal of the long-deprecated Email::Simple::Headers module. Nothing in EPEL-5 requires that module.

* Huge improvement to speed of bodyless message parsing
* More documentation of `Header` class
* New `Header` `crlf` defaults to real `CRLF`
* Change initialization order to unbreak `Email::MIME`
* Do not return `->body` from `->body_set` to simplify subclass behavior
* Improve tests
* Publicize `default_header_class` method
* Remove the long-deprecated `Headers.pm`
* Add repository metadata

This update is required for an update of perl-Email-MIME, which in turn is needed for a bugzilla security update.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This update can be installed with the "yum" update programs.  Use
su -c 'yum update perl-Email-Simple' at the command line.
