DESCRIPTION

WebService::MIAB is a Perl module that manages user and alias addresses on a Mail-in-a-box (MIAB) server.

You can list, create and remove user and alias addresses.

The API methods to the DNS system of MIAB is not implemented, yet. Patches are welcome.

METHODES

The user methods are to handle plain email adresses on a MIAB server. Each email address is a user and has (limited) access to the MIAB server.

get_users

Returns all defined users in JSON format.

my $users = $miab->get_users();

create_user

Creates a new user account. Expects the email address and the password in the parameter hash. Returns the answer from the webservice.

my $result = $miab->create_user({
	email => 'bart.simpson@springfield.com',
	password => 'EatMyShorts'
});

remove_user

Removes the email user account. Expects the email address in the parameter hash. Returns the answer from the webservice.

my result = $miab->remove_user({
	email => bart.simpson@springfield.com
});

find_user

Returns a list of users records matching its forward_to record to the given email_pattern and domain_pattern. The pattern can be a string that is evaluated to a regexp or a regexp.

my @users = $miab->find_user('email_pattern', qr/example.com/)

my @aliases = $miab->find_forward_to_aliases('alias_pattern', qr/example.com/);

find_permitted_sender_aliases

Returns a list of alias records matching its permitted_sender record to the given alias_pattern and domain_pattern. The pattern can be a string that is evaluated to a regexp or a regexp.

my @aliases = $miab->find_permitted_sender_aliases('alias_pattern', qr/example.com/);

	address => 'bart.simpson@springfield.com',
	forwards_to => ['lisa.simpson@springfield.com','Maggie.simpson@springfield.com'],
	permitted_senders => ['Homer.simpson@springfield.com','Marge.simpson@springfield.com'],
