NAME

7

INHERITANCE

9        Mail::Message::Field::Unstructured
10          is a Mail::Message::Field::Full
11          is a Mail::Message::Field
12          is a Mail::Reporter
13

SYNOPSIS

15        my $f = Mail::Message::Field::Unstructured->new('Comments', 'hi!');
16

DESCRIPTION

18       Unstructured fields do contain information which is not restricted in
19       any way.  RFC2822 defines some unstructured fields, but by default all
20       unknown fields are unstructured as well.  Things like attributes and
21       comments have no meaning for unstructured fields, but encoding does.

56           Inherited, see "Constructors" in Mail::Message::Field::Full
57
58       Mail::Message::Field::Unstructured->new($data)
59           When the $data is specified as single line, the content part is
60           considered to be correcly (character) encoded and escaped.
61           Typically, it is a line as read from file.  The folding of the line
62           is kept as is.
63
64           In case more than one argument is provided, the second is
65           considered the BODY.  Attributes and other special things are not
66           defined for unstructured fields, and therefore not valid options.
67           The BODY can be a single string, a single OBJECT, or an array of
68           OBJECTS.  The objects are stringified (into a comma separated
69           list).  Each BODY element is interpreted with the specified
70           encoding.
71
72           When the BODY is empty, the construction of the object fails:
73           "undef" is returned.

DIAGNOSTICS

306       Warning: Field content is not numerical: $content
307           The numeric value of a field is requested (for instance the "Lines"
308           or "Content-Length" fields should be numerical), however the data
309           contains weird characters.
310
311       Warning: Illegal character in charset '$charset'
312           The field is created with an utf8 string which only contains data
313           from the specified character set.  However, that character set can
314           never be a valid name because it contains characters which are not
315           permitted.
316
317       Warning: Illegal character in field name $name
318           A new field is being created which does contain characters not
319           permitted by the RFCs.  Using this field in messages may break
320           other e-mail clients or transfer agents, and therefore mutulate or
321           extinguish your message.
322
323       Warning: Illegal character in language '$lang'
324           The field is created with data which is specified to be in a
325           certain language, however, the name of the language cannot be
326           valid: it contains characters which are not permitted by the RFCs.
327
328       Warning: Illegal encoding '$encoding', used 'q'
329           The RFCs only permit base64 ("b " or "B ") or quoted-printable ("q"
330           or "Q") encoding.  Other than these four options are illegal.
331
332       Error: Package $package does not implement $method.
333           Fatal error: the specific package (or one of its superclasses) does
334           not implement this method where it should. This message means that
335           some other related classes do implement this method however the
336           class at hand does not.  Probably you should investigate this and
337           probably inform the author of the package.
