6 Email::MIME::Header - the header of a MIME message
7
9 version 1.949
10
12 This object behaves like a standard Email::Simple header, with the
13 following changes:
14
15 • the "header" method automatically decodes encoded headers if
16 possible
17
18 • the "header_as_obj" method returns an object representation of the
19 header value
20
21 • the "header_raw" method returns the raw header; (read only for now)
22
23 • stringification uses "header_raw" rather than "header"
24
25 Note that "header_set" does not do encoding for you, and expects an
26 encoded header. Thus, "header_set" round-trips with "header_raw", not
27 "header"! Be sure to properly encode your headers with
28 "Encode::encode('MIME-Header', $value)" before passing them to
29 "header_set". And be sure to use minimal version 2.83 of Encode module
30 due to bugs in MIME-Header.
31
32 Alternately, if you have Unicode (character) strings to set in headers,
33 use the "header_str_set" method.
