NAME
       Mail::Message::Construct::Bounce - bounce a Mail::Message

SYNOPSIS
        $message->bounce(To => 'you')->send;

DESCRIPTION
       Complex functionality on Mail::Message objects is implemented in different files which are
       autoloaded.  This file implements the functionality related to bouncing messages off to
       other destinations.

METHODS
   Constructing a message
       $obj->bounce( [<$rg_object|%options>] )
           The program calling this method considers itself as an intermediate step in the
           message delivery process; it therefore leaves a resent group of header fields as
           trace.

           When a message is received, the Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) adds a "Received" field to
           the header.  As %options, you may specify lines which are added to the resent group of
           that received field.  "Resent-*" is prepended before the field-names automatically,
           unless already present.

           You may also specify an instantiated Mail::Message::Head::ResentGroup (RG) object.
           See Mail::Message::Head::ResentGroup::new() for the available options.  This is
           required if you want to add a new resent group: create a new "Received" line in the
           header as well.

           If you are planning to change the body of a bounce message, don't!  Bounced messages
           have the same message-id as the original message, and therefore should have the same
           content (message-ids are universally unique).  If you still insist, use
           Mail::Message::body().

           example:

            my $bounce = $folder->message(3)->bounce(To => 'you', Bcc => 'everyone');

            $bounce->send;
            $outbox->addMessage($bounce);

            my $rg     = Mail::Message::Head::ResentGroup->new(To => 'you',
               Received => 'from ... by ...');
            $msg->bounce($rg)->send;

DIAGNOSTICS
       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().
