NAME
Email::Thread - Use JWZ's mail threading algorithm with Email::Simple objects
SYNOPSIS
use Email::Thread;
my $threader = Email::Thread->new(@messages);
$threader->thread;
dump_em($_,0) for $threader->rootset;
sub dump_em {
my ($self, $level) = @_;
debug (' \-> ' x $level);
if ($self->message) {
print $self->message->header("Subject") , "
";
} else {
print "[ Message $self not available ]
";
}
dump_em($self->child, $level+1) if $self->child;
dump_em($self->next, $level) if $self->next;
}
DESCRIPTION
Strictly speaking, this doesn't really need Email::Simple objects. It just needs an object that responds to the same API. At the time of
writing the list of classes with the Email::Simple API comprises just Email::Simple.
Due to how it's implemented, its API is an exact clone of Mail::Thread. Please see that module's documentation for API details. Just
mentally substitute "Email::Thread" everywhere you see "Mail::Thread" and "Email::Thread::Container" where you see
"Mail::Thread::Container".
