NAME

       Mail::Message::Convert::MimeEntity - translate Mail::Message to MIME::Entity vv

INHERITANCE

        Mail::Message::Convert::MimeEntity
          is a Mail::Message::Convert
          is a Mail::Reporter

SYNOPSIS

        use Mail::Message::Convert::MimeEntity;
        my $convert = Mail::Message::Convert::MimeEntity->new;

        my Mail::Message $msg    = Mail::Message->new;
        my MIME::Entity  $entity = $convert->export($msg);

        my MIME::Entity  $entity = MIME::Entity->new;
        my Mail::Message $msg    = $convert->from($entity);

        use Mail::Box::Manager;
        my $mgr     = Mail::Box::Manager->new;
        my $folder  = $mgr->open(folder => 'Outbox');
        $folder->addMessage($entity);

DESCRIPTION

       The MIME::Entity extends Mail::Internet message with multiparts and more methods.  The
       Mail::Message objects are more flexible in how the message parts are stored, and uses
       separate header and body objects.

       Extends "DESCRIPTION" in Mail::Message::Convert.

METHODS

       Extends "METHODS" in Mail::Message::Convert.

   Constructors
       Extends "Constructors" in Mail::Message::Convert.

       Mail::Message::Convert::MimeEntity->new(%options)
           Inherited, see "METHODS" in Mail::Message::Convert

   Converting
       Extends "Converting" in Mail::Message::Convert.

       $obj->export( $message, [$parser] )
           Returns a new MIME::Entity message object based on the information from the $message,
           which is a Mail::Message object.

           You may want to supply your own $parser, which is a MIME::Parser object, to change the
           parser flags.  Without a $parser object, one is created for you, with all the default
           settings.

           If "undef" is passed, in place of a $message, then an empty list is returned.  When
           the parsing failes, then MIME::Parser throws an exception.

           example:

            my $convert = Mail::Message::Convert::MimeEntity->new;
            my Mail::Message $msg  = Mail::Message->new;
            my manual MIME::Entity  $copy = $convert->export($msg);

       $obj->from($mime_object)
           Returns a new Mail::Message object based on the information from the specified
           MIME::Entity.  If the conversion fails, the "undef" is returned.  If "undef" is passed
           in place of an OBJECT, then an empty list is returned.

           example:

            my $convert = Mail::Message::Convert::MimeEntity->new;
            my MIME::Entity  $msg  = MIME::Entity->new;
            my Mail::Message $copy = $convert->from($msg);

DIAGNOSTICS

       Error: Converting from MIME::Entity but got a $type, return
       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.
