For decoding headers you have to use study() in one of its forms
  my $cc = $msg->study('cc');              #  ==
  my $cc = $msg->get('cc')->study;         #  ==
  my $cc = $msg->head->study('cc');        #  ==
  my $cc = $msg->head->get('cc')->study;

It returns a Mail::Message::Field::Full object, which is smart.
