NAME

Mail::Box::IMAP4::Head - header fields related IMAP interface

INHERITANCE

 Mail::Box::IMAP4::Head
   is a Mail::Message::Head
   is a Mail::Reporter

DESCRIPTION

This class implements a pure IMAP4 protocol interface, where as little data is retreived from the header as possible. This may look nice to you, but is not sufficient for many tasks. For instance, you cannot removed or modify fields this way.

Change Mail::Box::IMAP4::new(cache_head) to YES or DELAY, to get a message header which is capable of performing all possible games with headers. On the other hand: the other settings are not 100% safe...

OVERLOADED

Mail::Box::IMAP4::Head->new(OPTIONS)

 -Option      --Defined in     --Default
  cache_fields                   false
  field_type    Mail::Message::Head  Mail::Message::Field::Fast
  log           Mail::Reporter   'WARNINGS'
  message       Mail::Message::Head  undef
  modified      Mail::Message::Head  <false>
  trace         Mail::Reporter   'WARNINGS'

cache_fields => BOOLEAN: This is only a read-cache on fields, because this kind of header does not allow writing of fields. See Mail::Box::IMAP4::new(cache_head), this value is set to false for NO and true for PARTIAL..

log => LEVEL
message => MESSAGE
modified => BOOLEAN

DIAGNOSTICS

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.
