mb_encode_mimeheader - Encode string for MIME header

SYNOPSIS

       string m0],n[int_m$indent]) (string  $str, [string  $charset = mb_internal_encoding()], [string	$transfer_encoding = "B"], [string  $line-
       feed = "

DESCRIPTION

	Encodes a given string$str by the MIME header encoding scheme.

PARAMETERS

	      o $str
		- The string being encoded.

	      o $charset
		-$charset specifies the name of the character set in which $str is represented in. The default value is determined by the  current
		NLS setting ( mbstring.language). mb_internal_encoding(3) should be set to same encoding.

	      o $transfer_encoding
		-$transfer_encoding  specifies the scheme of MIME encoding. It should be either "B" (Base64) or "Q" (Quoted-Printable). Falls back
		to "B" if not given.

	      o $linefeed
		-$linefeed specifies the EOL (end-of-line) marker with which mb_encode_mimeheader(3) performs line-folding (a RFC term, the act of
		breaking a line longer than a certain length into multiple lines. The length is currently hard-coded to 74 characters). Falls back
		to "
" (CRLF) if not given.

	      o $indent
		- Indentation of the first line (number of characters in the header before $str).

RETURN VALUES

	A converted version of the string represented in ASCII.

EXAMPLES

       Example #1

	      mb_encode_mimeheader(3) example

	      <?php
	      $name = ""; // kanji
	      $mbox = "kru";
	      $doma = "gtinn.mon";
	      $addr = mb_encode_mimeheader($name, "UTF-7", "Q") . " <" . $mbox . "@" . $doma . ">";
	      echo $addr;
	      ?>

NOTES

       Note

	       This function isn't designed to break lines at higher-level contextual break points (word boundaries,  etc.).  This  behaviour  may
	      clutter up the original string with unexpected spaces.
