Mail::Field::Generic - implementation for inspecific fields
Mail::Field::Generic is a Mail::Field
use Mail::Field; my $field = Mail::Field->new('Subject', 'some subject text'); my $field = Mail::Field->new(subject => 'some subject text');
A generic implementation for header fields without own implementation. This is fine for fields like Subject, X-Mailer, etc., where the field holds only a string of no particular importance/format.
Subject
X-Mailer
Extends "DESCRIPTION" in Mail::Field.
Extends "METHODS" in Mail::Field.
Extends "Constructors" in Mail::Field.
Inherited, see "Constructors" in Mail::Field
Extends ""Fake" constructors" in Mail::Field.

Inherited, see "Smart accessors" in Mail::Field
Extends "DETAILS" in Mail::Field.
Mail::Field objects use autoloading to compile new functionality. Apparently, the method called is not implemented for the specific class of the field object.
