bionic (3) Email::MIME::Header.3pm.gz

Provided by: libemail-mime-perl_1.946-1_all bug

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


VERSION
       version 1.946


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_as_obj" method returns an object representation of the header value

       •   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".  And be sure to use minimal
       version 2.83 of Encode module due to bugs in MIME-Header.

       Alternately, if you have Unicode (character) strings to set in headers, use the "header_str_set" method.
