Mail::Message::ConstruUserBContributed PerlMail::Message::Construct::Bounce(3)NAMEMail::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().
