A problem installing Mail-Box-2.061:

I don't seem to be able to install the prerequisite 
"User-Identity-0.90" on my iMac (OS X 10.3.9). I have 
"User-Identity-0.70", but on "make install" for User-Identity-0.90 I 
get the error message
    Cannot forceunlink /Library/Perl/5.8.1/User/Identity.pm:
    Permission denied at /System/Library/Perl/5.8.1/File/Find.pm line 888
    make: *** [pure_site_install] Error 255
Line 888 in Find.pm reads
    { $wanted_callback->() }; # protect against wild "next"
This line is part of
    # HACK: replace push to preserve dir traversal order
    #push @Stack,[$CdLvl,$dir_name,$FN,$sub_nlink];

Any ideas about how I might get around this problem? I am using 
Mail-Box-2.057 now. Perhaps I should just stick with that. It works 
fine for my purposes.

Regards,

Vic
