💖 Mail::S...AddrMech(3) 💖

okay so this is the manual page for Mail::SPF::SenderIPAddrMech — yes the header truncates the name all dramatic like that, that's just how it prints, bestie. It lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation section and it's giving very "I'm the blueprint, not the building" energy. Let's get into it. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

Mail::SPF::SenderIPAddrMech — the abstract base class for SPF record mechanisms that operate on the SMTP sender's IP address. 👑

🎀 VERSION 🎀

version 3.20260331 — that's the one, no cap. 💅

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So like, Mail::SPF::SenderIPAddrMech is an abstract base class for SPF record mechanisms that operate on the SMTP sender's IP address. That's the whole vibe. 🦋

Important bestie: you cannot instantiate this one directly. It's abstract, it said no to being an object, it's not the main character of your script. Instead, go create an instance of a concrete sub-class. That's the move. 💀

🧚 Constructors

Go read "Constructors" in Mail::SPF::Mech — everything you need is over there, I'm not repeating it, this page is just the pointer. 🫶

👑 Class methods

Same situation, bestie: see "Class methods" in Mail::SPF::Mech. 🎀

🌈 Instance methods

And yep, you guessed it: see "Instance methods" in Mail::SPF::Mech. It's all inherited, it's all documented upstream, we're just vibing. ⭐

and that's the whole page, bestie! This lil doc came to you courtesy of perl v5.42.1, dated 2026-04-23, under the ever-so-slightly-cropped title Mail::S...AddrMech(3). Go forth and instantiate a concrete sub-class instead, mwah 💅✨🫶
