Back to the my original email about Email::Address::XS... I fixed last known C/XS related bugs and automatic tests passed on Travis-CI and AppVeyor with different perl versions. Finally Email::Address::XS is available on cpan: https://metacpan.org/pod/Email::Address::XS Module is compatible back to perl 5.6.0 and is working fine on Linux, Windows, FreeBSD and HP-UX. If you found any problems with it then let me know.
