NAME
Email::Date::Format - produce RFC 2822 date strings SYNOPSIS
use Email::Date::Format qw(email_date); my $header = email_date($date->epoch); Email::Simple->create( header => [ Date => $header, ], body => '...', ); DESCRIPTION
This module provides a simple means for generating an RFC 2822 compliant datetime string. (In case you care, they're not RFC 822 dates, because they use a four digit year, which is not allowed in RFC 822.) FUNCTIONS email_date my $date = email_date; # now my $date = email_date( time - 60*60 ); # one hour ago "email_date" accepts an epoch value, such as the one returned by "time". It returns a string representing the date and time of the input, as specified in RFC 2822. If no input value is provided, the current value of "time" is used. "format_date" is exported only if requested. email_gmdate my $date = email_gmdate; "email_gmdate" is identical to "email_date", but it will return a string indicating the time in Greenwich Mean Time, rather than local time. "format_gmdate" is exported only if requested. PERL EMAIL PROJECT
