NAME libnet - Simple API to the client side of various internet protocols DESCRIPTION libnet is a collection of Perl modules which provides a simple and consistent programming interface (API) to the client side of various protocols used in the internet community. For details of each protocol please refer to the RFC. RFCs can be found in various places on the web, for a starting point look at: https://www.rfc-editor.org/ The RFCs implemented in this distribution are: Net::FTP RFC959 File Transfer Protocol Net::NNTP RFC977 Network News Transfer Protocol Net::POP3 RFC1939 Post Office Protocol 3 Net::SMTP RFC821 Simple Mail Transfer Protocol Net::Time RFC867 Daytime Protocol Net::Time RFC868 Time Protocol EXAMPLES The demos directory does contain a few demo scripts. These should be run from the top directory like: demos/smtp.self -user my-email-address -debug However, I do not guarantee these scripts to work.
