# Mail::Message::Body::File - phpMan

## NAME
    [Mail::Message::Body::File] - body of a message temporarily stored in a
    file

## INHERITANCE
     [Mail::Message::Body::File]
       is a [Mail::Message::Body]
       is a [Mail::Reporter]

## SYNOPSIS
     See [Mail::Message::Body]

## DESCRIPTION
    The body (content) of a message can be stored in various ways. In this
    documentation you find the description of extra functionality you have
    when a message is stored in a file.

    Storing a whole message is a file is useful when the body is large.
    Although access through a file is slower, it is saving a lot of memory.

## DETAILS
    Extends "DETAILS" in [Mail::Message::Body].

## DIAGNOSTICS
    Error: Cannot write to temporary body file $filename: $!
        The message body is to be stored in a temporary file (probably
        because it is a large body), but for the indicated reason, this file
        cannot be created.

    Warning: Charset $name is not known
        The encoding or decoding of a message body encounters a character
        set which is not understood by Perl's Encode module.

    Warning: No decoder defined for transfer encoding $name.
        The data (message body) is encoded in a way which is not currently
        understood, therefore no decoding (or recoding) can take place.

    Warning: No encoder defined for transfer encoding $name.
        The data (message body) has been decoded, but the required encoding
        is unknown. The decoded data is returned.

    Error: Package $package does not implement $method.
        Fatal error: the specific package (or one of its superclasses) does
        not implement this method where it should. This message means that
        some other related classes do implement this method however the
        class at hand does not. Probably you should investigate this and
        probably inform the author of the package.

    Error: Unable to read file $filename for message body file: $!
        A [Mail::Message::Body::File] object is to be created from a named
        file, but it is impossible to read that file to retrieve the lines
        within. Therefore, no copy to a temporary file can be made.

    Warning: Unknown line terminator $eol ignored
