NAME
       Email::LocalDelivery - Deliver a piece of email - simply


VERSION
       version 1.201


SYNOPSIS
         use Email::LocalDelivery;
         my @delivered_to = Email::LocalDelivery->deliver($mail, @boxes);


DESCRIPTION
       This module delivers an email to a list of mailboxes.

       Achtung!  You might be better off looking at Email::Sender, and at Email::Sender::Transport::Maildir and
       Email::Sender::Transport::Mbox.  They are heavily used and more carefully monitored.


PERL VERSION
       This code is effectively abandonware.  Although releases will sometimes be made to update contact info or
       to fix packaging flaws, bug reports will mostly be ignored.  Feature requests are even more likely to be
       ignored.  (If someone takes up maintenance of this code, they will presumably remove this notice.)  This
       means that whatever version of perl is currently required is unlikely to change -- but also that it might
       change at any new maintainer's whim.


METHODS
   deliver
       This takes an email, as a plain string, and a list of mailboxes to deliver that mail to. It returns the
       list of boxes actually written to.  If no boxes are given, it assumes the standard Unix mailbox. (Either
       $ENV{MAIL}, /var/spool/mail/you, /var/mail/you, or ~you/Maildir/)
