NAME
WWW::Topica - read emails from a Topica mailing list
SYNOPSIS
my $topica = WWW::Topica->new( list => 'mylist', login => 'mylogin', password => 'mypass' );
while (my $mail = $topica->mail) {
Email::LocalDelivery->deliver($mail, 'mylist.mbox');

DESCRIPTION
This module screen scrapes the Topica website and fetches back RFC822 text representations of all the
mails posted to a given list. Where possible it fills in the from, to and date fields. It should be noted
that in some cases it's impossible to get both the sender name and their email address.
METHODS
new
Takes three options, the list name, your login account and your password;
You can also pass in "local" and "debug". "debug" will print out various debugging messages whereas
"local" will use local files for testing. "local" automatically sets "debug" to 1 unless debug is
explicitly set to 0.
Furthermore if you pass in a "first" option the parsing will start from that offset. A "last" lets you
set an upper bound.
