NAME
Mail::Box::Message - manage one message within a mail-folder
INHERITANCE
Mail::Box::Message
is a Mail::Message
is a Mail::Reporter
Mail::Box::Message is extended by
Mail::Box::Dir::Message
Mail::Box::File::Message
Mail::Box::Message::Destructed
Mail::Box::Net::Message
SYNOPSIS
# Usually these message objects are created indirectly
use Mail::Box::Manager;
my $manager = Mail::Box::Manager->new;
my $folder = $manager->open(folder => 'Mail/Drafts');
my $msg = $folder->message(1);
$msg->delete;
$msg->size; # and much more
DESCRIPTION
These pages do only describe methods which relate to folders. If you access the knowledge
of a message, then read Mail::Message.
During its life, a message will pass through certain stages. These stages were introduced
to reduce the access-time to the folder. Changing from stage, the message's body and head
objects may change.
Extends "DESCRIPTION" in Mail::Message.
METHODS
Extends "METHODS" in Mail::Message.
Constructors
Extends "Constructors" in Mail::Message.

-Option --Defined in --Default

body => OBJECT
body_type => CODE|CLASS
If the body of a message is used delay-loaded, the message must what type of message
to become when it finally gets parsed. The folder which is delaying the load must
specify the algorithm to determine that type.
deleted => BOOLEAN
field_type => CLASS
folder => FOLDER
The folder where this message appeared in. The argument is an instance of (a sub-
class of) a Mail::Box.
head => OBJECT
head_type => CLASS
labels => ARRAY|HASH
log => LEVEL
messageId => STRING
modified => BOOLEAN
size => INTEGER
The size of the message, which includes head and body, but without the message
separators which may be used by the folder type.
trace => LEVEL
trusted => BOOLEAN

The message
Extends "The message" in Mail::Message.
$obj->container()
Inherited, see "The message" in Mail::Message
$obj->copyTo($folder, %options)
Copy the message to the indicated opened $folder, without deleting the original. The
coerced message (the clone in the destination folder) is returned.
-Option --Default
shallow <false>
shallow_body <false>
shallow_head <false>
share <false>
shallow => BOOLEAN
Used for clone(shallow).
shallow_body => BOOLEAN
Used for clone(shallow_body).
shallow_head => BOOLEAN
Used for clone(shallow_head).
share => BOOLEAN
Try to share the physical storage of the message between the two folders.
Sometimes, they even may be of different types. When not possible, this options
will be silently ignored.
example:
my $draft = $mgr->open(folder => 'Draft');
$message->copyTo($draft, share => 1);
$obj->folder( [$folder] )
In with folder did we detect this message/dummy? This is a reference to the folder-
object.
$obj->isDummy()
Inherited, see "The message" in Mail::Message
$obj->isPart()
Inherited, see "The message" in Mail::Message
$obj->messageId()
Inherited, see "The message" in Mail::Message
$obj->moveTo($folder, %options)
Move the message from this folder to the $folder specified. This will create a copy
using clone() first. Then, this original message is flagged to get deleted. So until
the source folder is closed, two copies of the message may stay in memory.
The newly created message clone (part of the destination folder) is returned. All
%options are passed to copyTo()
-Option --Default
shallow_body <undef>
share <true unless shallow_body exists>
shallow_body => BOOLEAN
Only create a shallow body, which means that the header can not be reused. A
message can therefore not be shared in storage unless explicitly stated.
share => BOOLEAN
When there is a chance that the original message can be undeleted, then this must be
set to false. Otherwise a shallow clone will be made, which will share the header
which can be modified in the undeleted message.
example: of moving a message
my $trash = Mail::Box::Mbox->new(folder => 'trash');
my $t = $msg->moveTo($trash);
is equivalent to
my $t = $msg->copyTo($trash, share => 1);
$msg->delete;

based on the head (passed as first argument).
By default, the $bodytype will call Mail::Box::determineBodyType() where the message
will be added to.

attempts to access the header and body. Be careful with the usage of this method.
DETAILS
Extends "DETAILS" in Mail::Message.
DIAGNOSTICS
Error: Cannot coerce a $class object into a $class object
Error: Cannot include forward source as $include.
Unknown alternative for the forward(include). Valid choices are "NO", "INLINE",
"ATTACH", and "ENCAPSULATE".
Error: Cannot include reply source as $include.
Unknown alternative for the "include" option of reply(). Valid choices are "NO",
"INLINE", and "ATTACH".
Error: Method bounce requires To, Cc, or Bcc
The message bounce() method forwards a received message off to someone else without
modification; you must specified it's new destination. If you have the urge not to
specify any destination, you probably are looking for reply(). When you wish to modify
the content, use forward().
Error: Method forwardAttach requires a preamble
Error: Method forwardEncapsulate requires a preamble
Error: No address to create forwarded to.
If a forward message is created, a destination address must be specified.
Error: No default mailer found to send message.
The message send() mechanism had not enough information to automatically find a mail
transfer agent to sent this message. Specify a mailer explicitly using the "via"
options.
Error: No rebuild rule $name defined.
Error: Only build() Mail::Message's; they are not in a folder yet
You may wish to construct a message to be stored in a some kind of folder, but you
need to do that in two steps. First, create a normal Mail::Message, and then add it
to the folder. During this Mail::Box::addMessage() process, the message will get
coerce()-d into the right message type, adding storage information and the like.
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: coercion starts with some object
