# INSTALL file for pop2imap

GETTING
-------

http://www.linux-france.org/prj/pop2imap/dist/

PREREQUISITES
-------------

You need : 
- Perl 
  try : perl -v
  try : perl -c pop2imap

- Mail::IMAPClient module 
  try : perl -mMail::IMAPClient -e ''

- Mail::POP3Client module 
  try : perl -mMail::POP3Client -e ''

- Email::Simple module
  try : perl -mEmail::Simple -e ''

- Date::Manip module 
  try : perl -mDate::Manip -e ''

- IO::Socket::SSL  module (optional needed with --ssl1 or --ssl2)
  try : perl -mIO::Socket::SSL -e ''

Any software packager should add all the perl modules dependencies by default
since users can use any option (--ssl*).


INSTALLING
----------
To see what will be done, just run:

  make -n install

To install pop2imap, just run:

  make install

or copy the file pop2imap where you want it to be.

TESTING
-------

You can change the file tests.sh and run the tests with :

  sh -x tests.sh

The tests.sh script break on first failure ("set -e" directive).

Since I added more tests you also need a remote imap server see the
file tests.sh and help yourself. No time to make a universal test
file.
