+Charset handling:
+-----------------
+
+Since 2.083 charset handling has changed. Please note the following
+information from the upstream ChangeLog:
+
+	- FIX CHARACTER-SET HANDLING.  When a new body is created,
+	  it will get charset 'PERL', which means: Perl internal
+	  representation.  Also the decoded() body is of that.	As part
+	  of a message, the body with be translated into real utf-8.
+
+	  This change will make Mail::Box slower, but correct!  Check
+	  your applications!   Use $msg->decoded when you process the
+	  content.
+
+	- removed $msg->decoded option 'keep', because decoded object
+	  depends on temporary decoding parameters.
