NAME
    Mail::Message::Body::String - body of a Mail::Message stored as single string

INHERITANCE
     Mail::Message::Body::String
       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 will
    find the description of extra functionality you have when a message is stored as a single
    scalar.

    Storing a whole message in one string is only a smart choice when the content is small or
    encoded. Even when stored as a scalar, you can still treat the body as if the data is stored in
    lines or an external file, but this will be slower.

DIAGNOSTICS
    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 scalar: $!
        A Mail::Message::Body::String object is to be created from a named file, but it is
        impossible to read that file to retrieve the lines within.

    Warning: Unknown line terminator $eol ignored
