NAME

XML::Generator::RFC822::RDF - generate RDF/XML SAX2 events for RFC822 messages

SYNOPSIS

my $folder = Email::Folder->new($path_mbox);

while (my $msg = $folder->next_message()) {

    my $writer    = XML::SAX::Writer->new();
    my $filter    = XML::Filter::DataIndenter->new(Handler=>$writer);
    my $generator = XML::Generator::RFC822::RDF->new(Handler=>$filter);

    $generator->parse($msg);
}

DESCRIPTION

Generate RDF/XML SAX2 events for RFC822 messages.

Messages are keyed using SHA1 digests of Message-IDs and email addresses. In the case of the latter this makes it easier to merge messages with contact data that has been serialized using XML::Generator::vCard::RDF (version 1.3+)
