.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
A bare-bones Pyzor <http://pyzor.org> client that currently only
implements the functionality needed for Mail::SpamAssassin.
.SH "PROTOCOL DETAILS"
.IX Header "PROTOCOL DETAILS"
The Pyzor protocol is not a published standard, and there appears to be
no meaningful public documentation. What follows is enough information,
largely gleaned through forum posts and reverse engineering, to facilitate
effective use of this module:
.PP
Pyzor is an RPC-oriented, message-based protocol. Each message
is a simple dictionary of 7\-bit ASCII keys and values. Server responses
always include at least the following:
.IP \(bu 4
\&\f(CW\*(C`Code\*(C'\fR \- Similar to HTTP status codes; anything besides \f(CW200\fR
is an error.
.IP \(bu 4
\&\f(CW\*(C`Diag\*(C'\fR \- Similar to HTTP status reasons: a text description
of the status.
.PP
(NB: There are additional standard response headers that are useful only for
the protocol itself and thus are not part of this module's returns.)
.SS Reliability
.IX Subsection "Reliability"
Pyzor uses UDP rather than TCP, so no message is guaranteed to reach its
destination. A transmission failure can happen in either the request or
the response; in either case, a timeout error will result. Such errors
are represented as thrown instances of Mail::Pyzor::X::Timeout.
.SH CONSTRUCTOR
.IX Header "CONSTRUCTOR"
.SS new(%OPTS)
.IX Subsection "new(%OPTS)"
