NAME

       Mail::Message::Construct::Bounce - bounce a Mail::Message

SYNOPSIS

        $message->bounce(To => 'you')->send;

DESCRIPTION

       Complex functionality on Mail::Message objects is implemented in different files which are autoloaded.
       This file implements the functionality related to bouncing messages off to other destinations.

METHODS

   Constructing a message
       $obj->bounce( [<$rg_object|%options>] )
           The  program  calling  this  method  considers itself as an intermediate step in the message delivery
           process; it therefore leaves a resent group of header fields as trace.

           When a message is received, the Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) adds a "Received" field to the header.   As
           %options,  you  may  specify  lines  which  are  added  to  the  resent group of that received field.
           "Resent-*" is prepended before the field-names automatically, unless already present.

           You  may  also  specify  an   instantiated   Mail::Message::Head::ResentGroup   (RG)   object.    See
           Mail::Message::Head::ResentGroup::new()  for  the available options.  This is required if you want to
           add a new resent group: create a new "Received" line in the header as well.

           If you are planning to change the body of a bounce message, don't!  Bounced messages  have  the  same
           message-id  as  the  original  message,  and  therefore should have the same content (message-ids are
           universally unique).  If you still insist, use Mail::Message::body().

           example:

            my $bounce = $folder->message(3)->bounce(To => 'you', Bcc => 'everyone');

            $bounce->send;
            $outbox->addMessage($bounce);

            my $rg     = Mail::Message::Head::ResentGroup->new(To => 'you',
               Received => 'from ... by ...');
            $msg->bounce($rg)->send;

DIAGNOSTICS

       Error: Method bounce requires To, Cc, or Bcc
           The message bounce() method forwards a received message off to someone else without modification; you
           must specified it's new destination.  If you have the  urge  not  to  specify  any  destination,  you
           probably are looking for reply(). When you wish to modify the content, use forward().
