If not used them myself, but it looks like you have at least two
relevant alternatives:
% perl -MCPAN -e shell
cpan shell -- CPAN exploration and modules installation (v1.34)
ReadLine support enabled
cpan> i /pop/
CPAN: LWP loaded ok
[various warnings and informational messages snipped]
Distribution SDOWD/POP3Client-1_15.tar.gz
Module Mail::POP3Client (SDOWD/POP3Client-1_15.tar.gz)
Module Net::POP3 (GBARR/libnet-1.0605.tar.gz)
Module QPopupMenu (AWIN/PerlQt-1.06.tar.gz)
cpan>
If your perl administrator has not got CPAN.pm operational or
configured, inform them that it will make their jobs much easier :-)
If you dont know what CPAN (Comprehensive Perl Archive Network) is
please refer to http://www.perl.com for more details.
Hope this helps,
