NAME¶
Mail::Message::TransferEnc::QuotedPrint - handle quoted-printable message bodies
INHERITANCE¶
Mail::Message::TransferEnc::QuotedPrint
is a Mail::Message::TransferEnc
is a Mail::Reporter
SYNOPSIS¶
my Mail::Message $msg = ...;
my $decoded = $msg->decoded;
my $encoded = $msg->encode(transfer => 'quoted-printable');
DESCRIPTION¶
Encode and decode message bodies for quoted-printable transfer encoding. The
Quoted-Printable encoding is intended to represent data that largely consists
of bytes that correspond to printable characters in the ASCII character set.
Non-printable characters (as defined by English Americans) are represented by
a triplet consisting of the character "=" followed by two
hexadecimal digits.
METHODS¶
Constructors¶
- Mail::Message::TransferEnc::QuotedPrint->new(OPTIONS)
- See "Constructors" in Mail::Reporter
The Encoder¶
- Mail::Message::TransferEnc::QuotedPrint->addTransferEncoder(TYPE,
CLASS)
- See "The Encoder" in
Mail::Message::TransferEnc
- $obj->create(TYPE, OPTIONS)
- See "The Encoder" in
Mail::Message::TransferEnc
- $obj->name()
- See "The Encoder" in
Mail::Message::TransferEnc
Encoding¶
- $obj->check(BODY, OPTIONS)
- See "Encoding" in Mail::Message::TransferEnc
- $obj->decode(BODY, OPTIONS)
- Decoding is tricky, and not without loss of information.
Lines will stay separate lines, although they might have been joined
before the encoding split them up. Characters which are not printable will
be replaced by their octal value, and carriage returns ('=0D') at end of
line are removed.
-Option --Defined in --Default
result_type Mail::Message::TransferEnc <type of source body>
- $obj->encode(BODY, OPTIONS)
- Encoding is to quoted-printable is a careful process: All
characters outside the normal printing range, and including '=' are
encoded. They are translated into a '=' followed by a two digit hex of the
ascii value of the character. The same treatment is for white-spaces at
the end of a line.
The lines which are constructed which must be 76 characters max, not broken
on encoded characters.
-Option --Defined in --Default
result_type Mail::Message::TransferEnc <type of source body>

DIAGNOSTICS¶
- Error: Decoder for transfer encoding $type does not work:
$@
- Compiling the required transfer encoding resulted in
errors, which means that the decoder can not be used.
- Warning: No decoder for transfer encoding $type.
- A decoder for the specified type of transfer encoding is
not implemented.
- Error: Package $package does not implement $method.
- Fatal error: the specific package (or one of its
superclasses) does not implement this method where it should. This message
means that some other related classes do implement this method however the
class at hand does not. Probably you should investigate this and probably
inform the author of the package.
