    1 # random thoughts about what to do next.

    4 - CLEANUP THE MESS!
    5 
    6 - Also MIME-encode headers if they contain accented characters
    7   Make it configurable?
    8 
    9 - Document AUTH
   10 
   11 - Also accept hashrefs in place of hashes
   12 
   13 - Update web site
   14 . check with no wanted AUTH method specified
   15 
   16 - Also accept MIME::Lite objects? YES! It should be easy, except maybe if mail was built with filehandles?
   17 
   18 . Is use vars in sub OK ? And with mod_perl?
   19 
   20 . option for stricter email address checker
   21 
   22 . problems on Win32 with Perl 5.8.0 and CygWin? (see emails)
   23 
   24 
   25 - Check on older Perl 
   26 
   27 - cleanup and widely test SMTP AUTH support
   28 
   29 - Check with mod_perl
   30 
   31 - During Makefile.PL, try to find a local SMTP server and the user's e-mail
   32 address, and offer to pre-configure these as defaults in Sendmail.pm. And
   33 let the user enter defaults to override automatic detection.
   34 
   35 - Document $address_rx: which addresses it finds OK, and which not.
   36 
   37 - Add example scripts for CGI forms
   38 
   39 
   40 - Create sourceforge site and mailing list
   41 
   42 - Does the test say OK if no mail could be sent? check and fix
   43 
   44 
   45 Have make dist generate README and html ?
   46 
   47 Add install.ppm for PPM installs?
   48 
   49 Use 8BITMIME if available from server?
   50 
   51 Encode only if accented chars really present?
   52 
   53 Rename to Mail::Simple?
   54 
   55 
   56 This is not on my todo list anymore, because it looks like nobody is using Perl on Amiga:
   57 
   58 - Setup Perl on an Amiga and see if it runs. (it should)
   59 (but if someone tries it, I would appreciate knowing about it)
