💖 NAME 💖

Mail::Message::Construct — bestie, this one extends the functionality of a Mail::Message ✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

# See Mail::Message

yeah that's it, that's the whole synopsis. it's giving "go read the other page first" and honestly? valid. 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so here's the tea ☕ — all the complex functionality that lives on Mail::Message objects? it's not all crammed into one file. it's spread across different files that get autoloaded when you need them. 🎀

and this file right here? it handles the functionality related to creating message replies. that's its whole job. main character energy, one specific quest. 👑

the following constructors are available, and yes bestie, they're all their own little modules:

  • Mail::Message::Construct::Bounce
  • Mail::Message::Construct::Build
  • Mail::Message::Construct::Forward
  • Mail::Message::Construct::Read
  • Mail::Message::Construct::Rebuild
  • Mail::Message::Construct::Reply
  • Mail::Message::Construct::Text

seven of them. a whole squad. 🌈

✨ METHODS ✨

💅 $obj->AUTOLOAD()

so when an unknown method gets called on this message, that might just mean not all the code is compiled yet. no biggie, don't panic 🫶

for performance reasons, most of the complex activities on messages are dynamically loaded from other packages. it's lazy-loading, but make it fashion. ✨

and if loading doesn't help resolve the method you asked for? yeah, an error will be produced. 💀 that's your vibe check failing, fr fr.

it improves base — see "Error handling" in Mail::Reporter 💜
