Subject: as_string() is not documented
When passing an Email::Address object to another function I'd like to make sure that it's stringified before it goes. I've had occasions where it printed as a stringification of the hashref. I can't remember where, but I think it was as an argument to sprintf(). Any way, since C<as_string> exists, it might as well get documented, preferably near the overloading discussion.
The "format" method is meant for this. as_string is there primarily to not break old code that relies on it despite it being undocumented. -- rjbs
