Problem
Arrays in Go are mutable. This method currently replaces all values passed to
SetHeaderby their encoded version.This can be problematic in a scenario that the array passed to
SetHeaderis reused somewhere else in the code.Ex :
In the above example, the recipients passed to
SendMailwill be encoded and result in a501 5.1.3 Bad recipient address syntaxfrom any postfix server.In my opinion, the expected behaviour of
SetHeaderis not to mutate the values passed as arguments.Solution
The proposed change creates a new array of string of the same length as the header values passed in and fill it with the encoded values, therefore not touching the raw ones.
