#pod =head1 DESCRIPTION
#pod
#pod This object behaves like a standard Email::Simple header, with the following
#pod changes:
#pod
#pod =for :list
#pod * the C<header> method automatically decodes encoded headers if possible
#pod * the C<header_raw> method returns the raw header; (read only for now)
#pod * stringification uses C<header_raw> rather than C<header>
#pod
#pod Note that C<header_set> does not do encoding for you, and expects an
#pod encoded header.  Thus, C<header_set> round-trips with C<header_raw>,
#pod not C<header>!  Be sure to properly encode your headers with
#pod C<Encode::encode('MIME-Header', $value)> before passing them to
#pod C<header_set>.  And be sure to use minimal version 2.83 of Encode
#pod module due to L<bugs in MIME-Header|Encode::MIME::Header/BUGS>.
#pod
#pod Alternately, if you have Unicode (character) strings to set in headers, use the
#pod C<header_str_set> method.
