-A Mail::QuoteWrap object expects its text member to contain a reference
-to a list of lines of text, such as the output of methods like body
-News::Article(). It can then produce quotified output, optionally
-prepended with the quote mark designated by output_quotechar, within the
-width specified by columns.
-
-Mail::QuoteWrap specificially does not solve the following problems:
-
-It does not handle munged quote characters, such as those produced by the
-AOHell newsreader or similar gunge:
- >> This >is a second-generation quote, but it
- > looks >>like a nasty mix of first- and second->
- > generation >>material.
-
-It does not automatically detect and bypass news or mail headers. That
-is not the role of this object.
-
-It assumes a paragraph structure to the quoted text and doesn't try to
-enforce any other. If you want a module that detects document structure
-and deals well with it, look at Text::Autoformat.
