NAME¶

Email::MIME::Header - the header of a MIME message

VERSION¶

version 1.926

DESCRIPTION¶

This object behaves like a standard Email::Simple header, with the following changes:

•

the "header" method automatically decodes encoded headers if possible

•

the "header_raw" method returns the raw header; (read only for now)

•

stringification uses "header_raw" rather than "header"

Note that "header_set" does not do encoding for you, and expects an encoded header. Thus, "header_set" round-trips with "header_raw", not "header"! Be sure to properly encode your headers with "Encode::encode('MIME-Header', $value)" before passing them to "header_set". Alternately, if you have Unicode (character) strings to set in headers, use the "header_str_set" method.
