NAME
Mail::Message::TransferEnc::Base64 - encode/decode base64 message bodies
INHERITANCE
Mail::Message::TransferEnc::Base64
is a Mail::Message::TransferEnc
is a Mail::Reporter
SYNOPSIS
my Mail::Message $msg = ...;
my $decoded = $msg->decoded;
my $encoded = $msg->encode(transfer => 'base64');
DESCRIPTION
Encode or decode message bodies with base64. The e-mail protocol and user agents can not
handle binary data. Therefore, binary data -but even sometimes non-binary data- is
encoded into ASCII, this is transportable.
Base64 re-groups the bits of bytes, and maps them on characters. The data contains bytes
of 8 bits (an octet). These are repacked into groups of 6 bits, pointing in an array of
characters containing "[A-Za-z0-9+/]". This way, three data bytes become 4 base64 bytes.
The encoded data will be trailed by '=' characters to align on four bytes.

DIAGNOSTICS
Warning: Base64 line length not padded on 4.
While decoding base64 the data in a message body, a string was found which was not
padded into a multiple of four bytes. This is illegal, and therefore this data is
ignored.
Error: Decoder for transfer encoding $type does not work: $@
Compiling the required transfer encoding resulted in errors, which means that the
decoder can not be used.
Warning: No decoder for transfer encoding $type.
A decoder for the specified type of transfer encoding is not implemented.
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.
