.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
The Net::DNS::Mailbox module implements a subclass of \s-1DNS\s0 domain name
objects representing the \s-1DNS\s0 coded form of \s-1RFC822\s0 mailbox address.

.Ve
.PP
Creates a mailbox object representing the \s-1RFC822\s0 mail address specified by
the character string argument. An encoded domain name is also accepted for
backward compatibility with Net::DNS 0.68 and earlier.
.PP
The argument string consists of printable characters from the 7\-bit
\&\s-1ASCII\s0 repertoire.
.SS "address"
.IX Subsection "address"
.Vb 1
\&    $address = $mailbox\->address;
.Ve
.PP
Returns a character string containing the \s-1RFC822\s0 mailbox address
corresponding to the encoded domain name representation described
in \s-1RFC1035\s0 section 8.
.SH "DOMAIN NAME COMPRESSION AND CANONICALISATION"
.IX Header "DOMAIN NAME COMPRESSION AND CANONICALISATION"
The Net::DNS::Mailbox1035 and Net::DNS::Mailbox2535 subclass
packages implement \s-1RFC1035\s0 domain name compression and \s-1RFC2535\s0
canonicalisation.
