.el .IP "\f(CW$addrlist\fR = Dpkg::Email::AddressList\->new($string)" 4
.IX Item "$addrlist = Dpkg::Email::AddressList->new($string)"
Create a new object that can hold an email address list.
.ie n .IP "@addrlist = $addrlist\->\fBaddrlist()\fR" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW@addrlist\fR = \f(CW$addrlist\fR\->\fBaddrlist()\fR" 4
.IX Item "@addrlist = $addrlist->addrlist()"
Returns a list of Dpkg::Email::Address objects that art part of this
email address list object.
.ie n .IP "$bool = $addrlist\->parse($string)" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW$bool\fR = \f(CW$addrlist\fR\->parse($string)" 4
.IX Item "$bool = $addrlist->parse($string)"
Parses \f(CW$string\fR into the current object replacing the current address list.
.Sp
Will die on parse errors.
.ie n .IP "$bool = $addrlist\->contains($addr)" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW$bool\fR = \f(CW$addrlist\fR\->contains($addr)" 4
.IX Item "$bool = $addrlist->contains($addr)"
Checks whether the \f(CW$addr\fR Dpkg::Email::Address is present in the email
address list.
