.IX Item "$obj->coerce( <STRING|$object>, %options )"
Try to coerce the \f(CW$object\fR into a \f(CW\*(C`Mail::Message::Field::Address\*(C'\fR.
In case of a \s-1STRING,\s0 it is interpreted as an email address.
.Sp
The \f(CW%options\fR are passed to the object creation, and overrule the values
found in the \f(CW$object\fR.  The result may be \f(CW\*(C`undef\*(C'\fR or a newly created
object.  If the \f(CW$object\fR is already of the correct type, it is returned
unmodified.
.Sp
The \f(CW$object\fR may currently be a Mail::Address, a Mail::Identity, or
a User::Identity.  In case of the latter, one of the user's addresses
is chosen at random.

Parse the string for an address.  You never know whether one or more
addresses are specified on a line (often applications are wrong), therefore,
the \s-1STRING\s0 is first parsed for as many addresses as possible and then the
one is taken at random.

The first argument is an object, but not of a class which extends

.el .IP "Error: Cannot coerce a \f(CW$type\fR into a Mail::Message::Field::Address" 4
.IX Item "Error: Cannot coerce a $type into a Mail::Message::Field::Address"
When addresses are specified to be included in header fields, they may
be coerced into Mail::Message::Field::Address objects first.  What
you specify is not accepted as address specification.  This may be an
internal error.
.ie n .IP "Error: Cannot load collection module for $type ($class)." 4
.el .IP "Error: Cannot load collection module for \f(CW$type\fR ($class)." 4
.IX Item "Error: Cannot load collection module for $type ($class)."
Either the specified \f(CW$type\fR does not exist, or that module named \f(CW$class\fR returns
compilation errors.  If the type as specified in the warning is not
the name of a package, you specified a nickname which was not defined.
Maybe you forgot the 'require' the package which defines the nickname.
.ie n .IP "Error: Creation of a collection via $class failed." 4
.el .IP "Error: Creation of a collection via \f(CW$class\fR failed." 4
.IX Item "Error: Creation of a collection via $class failed."
The \f(CW$class\fR did compile, but it was not possible to create an object
of that class using the options you specified.
.IP "Error: Don't know what type of collection you want to add." 4
.IX Item "Error: Don't know what type of collection you want to add."
If you add a collection, it must either by a collection object or a
list of options which can be used to create a collection object.  In
the latter case, the type of collection must be specified.
.ie n .IP "Warning: No collection $name" 4
