💖 Mail::A...SubEntry(3) 💖

okay bestie, so this is a page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation manual, and the whole thing is about Mail::AuthenticationResults::Header::SubEntry — yes, the name is long, yes the header truncates it to Mail::A...SubEntry(3), we love a mysterious abbreviated queen 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

Mail::AuthenticationResults::Header::SubEntry — a whole class that models the Sub Entry parts of the Authentication Results Header. it's giving very specific, very necessary, and honestly? iconic 💅

🌸 VERSION 🌸

version 2.20250709 — that's the one, no cap ✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so listen. a sub entry is a result that relates to a main entry class. like, it doesn't stand alone, it's the bestie that comes with the main character 🫶

for example — and this is the exact example, not me making stuff up — if the main entry is "dkim=pass", then the sub entry may be "domain.d=example.com". see how it's attached? it's the little detail hanging off the big result. the way that works is lowkey elegant 😭

there may also be comments associated with the subentry as children. yes, children. the subentry has a whole little family tree situation going on 🌈

please see Mail::AuthenticationResults::Header::Base — that's your next read, go go go 👑
