NAME
Mail::Message::Head::ResentGroup - header fields tracking message delivery
INHERITANCE
Mail::Message::Head::ResentGroup
is a Mail::Message::Head::FieldGroup
is a Mail::Reporter
SYNOPSIS
my $rg = Mail::Message::Head::ResentGroup->new(head => $head,
From => 'me@home.nl', To => 'You@tux.aq');
$head->addResentGroup($rg);
my $rg = $head->addResentGroup(From => 'me');
my @from = $rg->From;
my @rgs = $head->resentGroups;
$rg[2]->delete if @rgs > 2;
DESCRIPTION
A resent group is a set of header fields which describe one intermediate step in the
message transport. Resent groups have NOTHING to do with user activety; there is no
relation to the "user's" sense of creating reply, forward, or bounce messages at all!
See documentation in the base class.
METHODS
See documentation in the base class.
Constructors
See documentation in the base class.
$obj->clone()
See "Constructors" in Mail::Message::Head::FieldGroup
$obj->from([HEAD|MESSAGE, OPTIONS])
WARNING: this method has two very different purposes. For backward compatibility
reasons, without arguments resentFrom() is called to return the "From" field of this
resent group.
With any arguments, a list of "Mail::Message::Head::ResentGroup" objects is returned,
taken from the specified MESSAGE or message HEAD.
$obj->implementedTypes()
Mail::Message::Head::ResentGroup->implementedTypes()
See "Constructors" in Mail::Message::Head::FieldGroup
Mail::Message::Head::ResentGroup->new([FIELDS], OPTIONS)
Create an object which maintains one set of resent headers. The FIELDS are
Mail::Message::Field objects from the same header.
OPTIONS which start with capitals will be used to construct additional fields. These
option names are prepended with "Resent-*", keeping the capitization of what is
specified.
-Option --Defined in --Default
Bcc undef

Bcc => STRING|OBJECT|OBJECTS
Cc => STRING|OBJECT|OBJECTS
Date => STRING
When this resent-group is dispatched by the resender of the message. Like the "Date"
field, it is not the date and time that the message was actually transported.
Delivered-To => STRING|FIELD
From => STRING|OBJECT|OBJECTS
Message-ID => STRING|FIELD
The "Resent-Message-ID" which identifies this resent group. The FIELD must contain
a message id.
Received => STRING
The "Received" field is the starting line for a resent group of header lines. If it
is not defined, one is created using createReceived().
Return-Path => STRING|FIELD
Sender => STRING|OBJECT
Only permitted when more than one from address is specified. In this case, it
selects one of these addresses as the main originator of the message.
To => STRING|OBJECT|OBJECTS
head => OBJECT
The header where the data is stored in. By default a Mail::Message::Head::Partial is
created for you.
log => LEVEL
message_head => HEAD
The real header of the message where this resent group is part of. The "head" used
in this class is only a container for a subset of fields.
software => STRING
trace => LEVEL
type => STRING
version => STRING
The header
See documentation in the base class.
$obj->add((FIELD => VALUE) | OBJECT)
All fields appear only once, so "add()" behaves as set().
$obj->addFields([FIELDNAMES])
Not applicable to resent-groups: the same name can appear in more than one group.
Therefore, a FIELDNAME is sufficiently distinctive.
$obj->attach(HEAD)
See "The header" in Mail::Message::Head::FieldGroup
$obj->delete()
See "The header" in Mail::Message::Head::FieldGroup
$obj->fieldNames()
See "The header" in Mail::Message::Head::FieldGroup
$obj->fields()
See "The header" in Mail::Message::Head::FieldGroup
$obj->head()
See "The header" in Mail::Message::Head::FieldGroup
$obj->messageHead([HEAD])
Returns (optionally after setting) the real header where this resent group belongs to.
This may be undef at creation, and then later filled in when
Mail::Message::Head::Complete::addResentGroup() is called.
$obj->orderedFields()
Returns the fields in the order as should appear in header according to rfc2822. For
the "Resent-*" fields of the group, the order is not that important, but the
"Return-Path", "Delivered-To", and "Received" must come first. Only fields mentioned
in the RFC are returned.
$obj->set((FIELD => VALUE) | OBJECT)
Set a FIELD to a (new) VALUE. The FIELD names which do not start with 'Resent-*' but
need it will have that added. It is also an option to specify a fully prepared
message field OBJECT. In any case, a field OBJECT is returned.
example:
my $this = Mail::Message::Head::ResentGroup->new;
$this->set(To => 'fish@tux.aq');
$msg->addResentGroup($this);
$msg->send;
$msg->bounce(To => 'fish@tux.aq')->send; # the same
my $this = Mail::Message::Head::ResentGroup
->new(To => 'fish@tux.aq');
Access to the header
See documentation in the base class.
$obj->bcc()
In scalar context, the "Resent-Bcc" field is returned. In list context, the addresses
as specified within the bcc field are returned as Mail::Address objects. Bcc fields
are not transmitted (hidden for external parties).
$obj->cc()
In scalar context, the "Resent-Cc" field is returned. In list context, the addresses
as specified within the cc field are returned as Mail::Address objects.
$obj->date()
Returns the "Resent-Date" field, or "undef" if it was not defined.
$obj->dateTimestamp()
The timestamp as stored within the "Resent-Date" field converted to local system time.
$obj->deliveredTo()
The field which describes the "Delivered-To" of this resent group.
$obj->destinations()
Returns a list of all addresses specified in the "Resent-To", "-Cc", and "-Bcc" fields
of this resent group.
$obj->isResentGroupFieldName(NAME)
Mail::Message::Head::ResentGroup->isResentGroupFieldName(NAME)
$obj->messageId()
Returns the message-ID used for this group of resent lines.
$obj->received()
The field which describes the "Received" data of this resent group.
$obj->receivedTimestamp()
The timestamp as stored within the "Received" field converted to local system time.
$obj->resentFrom()
In scalar context, the "Resent-From" field is returned. In list context, the
addresses as specified within the from field are returned as Mail::Address objects.
For reasons of backward compatibility and consistency, the from() method will return
the same as this method.
$obj->returnPath()
The field which describes the "Return-Path" of this resent group.
$obj->sender()
In scalar context, the "Resent-Sender" field is returned. In list context, the
addresses as specified within the from field are returned as Mail::Address objects.
$obj->software()
See "Access to the header" in Mail::Message::Head::FieldGroup
$obj->to()
In scalar context, the "Resent-To" field is returned. In list context, the addresses
as specified within the to field are returned as Mail::Address objects.
$obj->type()
See "Access to the header" in Mail::Message::Head::FieldGroup
$obj->version()
See "Access to the header" in Mail::Message::Head::FieldGroup
Internals
See documentation in the base class.
$obj->collectFields([NAME])
See "Internals" in Mail::Message::Head::FieldGroup
$obj->createReceived([DOMAIN])
Create a received field for this resent group. This is automatically called if none
was specified during creation of this resent group object.
The content of this field is described in RFC2821 section 4.4. It could use some
improvement.

DIAGNOSTICS
Error: Message header required for creation of ResentGroup.
It is required to know to which header the resent-group is created. Use the "head"
option. Maybe you should use Mail::Message::Head::Complete::addResentGroup() with
DATA, which will organize the correct initiations for you.
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.
