NAME
    Email::MIME::Encodings - A unified interface to MIME encoding and decoding

VERSION
    version 1.315

SYNOPSIS
      use Email::MIME::Encodings;
      my $encoded = Email::MIME::Encodings::encode(base64 => $body);
      my $decoded = Email::MIME::Encodings::decode(base64 => $encoded);

    If a third argument is given, it is the encoding to which to fall back. If no valid codec can be
    found (considering both the first and third arguments) then an exception is raised.

DESCRIPTION
    This module simply wraps "MIME::Base64" and "MIME::QuotedPrint" so that you can throw the
    contents of a "Content-Transfer-Encoding" header at some text and have the right thing happen.

    "MIME::Base64", "MIME::QuotedPrint", "Email::MIME".
