This is a thing I noticed just recently. The thing is: this error
message makes no sense and you can safely ignore it. Why it happens, I
have no idea because
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ perl -MMIME::Tools=5 -e1
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$
so it's all fine. Blame it on MIME::Tools...or ExtUtils::MakeMaker, but
not me. :-)
As for using this old version of MboxParser: the additional obligatory
requirements were MIME::QuotedPrint. Clearly, when you were able to
install MIME::Tools, you can install MIME::QuotedPrint, too.
The current version is 0.39 (released yesterday actually; might not yet
have propagated onto every CPAN mirror). It uses a new optional parser
(Mail::Mbox::MessageParser which has been released by David Coppit
shortly ago) which is _very_ fast. But even if you use 0.38 (which is
definitely less experimental), it should be significantly more
performant than 0.17. Also, 0.38 has shown to be relatively bug-free.
Some small changes to your existing scripts might be necessary though,
since the interface changed in a few spots.
