Gathering Email Attachments

46 New Member
So after a few hours of playing with my config file, I think I have it to a point where I am ready to start adding in the rest of the components to my perl application. One thing that I know I need to do is create a module that connects to an email server and downloads the emails with attachments to my server then delete the emails from the server regardless of if they have an attachment or not.

I have tried playing with Net::POP3 but I am unable to find any documentation on this package on how to manipulate email attachments.

Does anyone know where I could find a tutorial on how I could do this?

I don't believe that Net::POP3 has functions to handle attachments. I would search at CPAN for attachments. If I am wrong hopefully, someone will enlighten us both.
