Email::MIME::Header - phpMan

NAME
    Email::MIME::Header - the header of a MIME message

VERSION
    version 1.952

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.
