Detailed Description

This is the base class for all structured header fields.Base class for structured header fields.

It contains parsing methods for all basic token types found in rfc2822.

Parsing

At the basic level, there are tokens & tspecials (rfc2045), atoms & specials, quoted-strings, domain-literals (all rfc822) and encoded-words (rfc2047).

As a special token, we have the comment. It is one of the basic tokens defined in rfc822, but it's parsing relies in part on the basic token parsers (e.g. comments may contain encoded-words). Also, most upper-level parsers (notably those for phrase and dot-atom) choose to ignore any comment when parsing.

Then there are the real composite tokens, which are made up of one or more of the basic tokens (and semantically invisible comments): phrases (rfc822 with rfc2047) and dot-atoms (rfc2822).

This finishes the list of supported token types. Subclasses will provide support for more higher-level tokens, where necessary, using these parsers.
