Ugh, you are right. 

User::Identity provides many sub-modules, one of them is
Mail::Identity - I got the description from there, as it is the module
I have been using. I'll modify it to suit the description from
User::Identity, as it encompasses the submodules :-/

Just to have this bug complete, I am quoting here from the man page -
I'll upload a description similar to this one.

       User::Identity - maintains info about a physical person

       The "User::Identity" object is created to maintain a set of informa-
       tional objects which are related to one user.  The "User::Identity"
       module tries to be smart providing defaults, conversions and often
       required combinations.

       The identities are not implementing any kind of storage, and can there-
       fore be created by any simple or complex Perl program.  This way, it is
       more flexible than an XML file to store the data.  For instance, you
       can decide to store the data with Data::Dumper, Storable, DBI, Address-
       Book or whatever.  Extension to simplify this task are still to be
       developed.
