NAME
Email::MIME::Header - the header of a MIME message
VERSION
version 1.953
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.
PERL VERSION
This library should run on perls released even a long time ago. It should work
on any version of perl released in the last five years.
Although it may work on older versions of perl, no guarantee is made that the
minimum required version will not be increased. The version may be increased
for any reason, and there is no promise that patches will be accepted to lower
the minimum required perl.
