As reported in #117847 and #115366, an unpaired backtick in a docstring
tends to confuse e.g. Sphinx running on subclasses of standard library
objects, and the typographic style of using a backtick as an opening
quote is no longer in favor. Convert almost all uses of the form
The variable `foo' should do xyz
to
The variable 'foo' should do xyz
and also fix up miscellaneous other unpaired backticks (extraneous /
missing characters).
No functional change is intended here other than in human-readable
docstrings.
This PR replaces #1977. The reason for the replacement is two-fold.
The fix itself is different is that if the CTE header doesn't exist in the original message, it is inserted. This is important because the new CTE could be quoted-printable whereas the original is implicit 8bit.
Also the tests are different. The test_nonascii_as_string_without_cte test in #1977 doesn't actually test the issue in that it passes without the fix. The test_nonascii_as_string_without_content_type_and_cte test is improved here, and even though it doesn't fail without the fix, it is included for completeness.

This defaults to True in the compat32 policy for backward compatibility,
but to False for all new policies.
Patch by Milan Oberkirch, with a few tweaks.
This is more RFC compliant (see issue) and fixes a problem with
signature verifiers rejecting the part when signed. There is some
amount of backward compatibility concern here since it changes
the output, but the RFC issue coupled with fixing the problem
with signature verifiers seems worth the small risk of breaking
code that depends on the current incorrect output.
This is a bit of an ugly hack because of the way generator pieces together the
output message. The deepcopys aren't too expensive, though, because we know it
is only called on messages that are not multiparts, and the payload (the thing
that could be large) is an immutable object.
Test and preliminary work on patch by Vajrasky Kok.
Previously the parts of the message retained whatever linesep they had on
read, which means if the messages weren't read in univeral newline mode, the
line endings could well be inconsistent. In general sending it via smtplib
would result in them getting fixed, but it is better to generate them
correctly to begin with. Also, the new send_message method of smtplib does
not do the fixup, so that method is producing rfc-invalid output without this
fix.

When the new policies are used (and only when the new policies are explicitly
used) headers turn into objects that have attributes based on their parsed
values, and can be set using objects that encapsulate the values, as well as
set directly from unicode strings. The folding algorithm then takes care of
encoding unicode where needed, and folding according to the highest level
syntactic objects.
With this patch only date and time headers are parsed as anything other than
unstructured, but that is all the helper methods in the existing API handle.
I do plan to add more parsers, and complete the set specified in the RFC
before the package becomes stable.
This patch primarily does two things: (1) it adds some internal-interface
methods to Policy that allow for Policy to control the parsing and folding of
headers in such a way that we can construct a backward compatibility policy
that is 100% compatible with the 3.2 API, while allowing a new policy to
implement the email6 API. (2) it adds that backward compatibility policy and
refactors the test suite so that the only differences between the 3.2
test_email.py file and the 3.3 test_email.py file is some small changes in
test framework and the addition of tests for bugs fixed that apply to the 3.2
API.
There are some additional teaks, such as moving just the code needed for the
compatibility policy into _policybase, so that the library code can import
only _policybase. That way the new code that will be added for email6
will only get imported when a non-compatibility policy is imported.
This new interface will also allow for future planned enhancements
in control over the parser/generator without requiring any additional
complexity in the parser/generator API.
Patch reviewed by Éric Araujo and Barry Warsaw.
The rearranged code should do exactly what the old code did, but
the new code avoids a potentially costly re computation in the case
where a boundary already exists.
The tests that were failing on (some) windows machines, where the
msg_XX.txt files used native \r\n lineseps are now also run on machines
that use \n natively, and conversely the \n tests are run on Windows.
The failing tests revealed one place where linesep needed to be added
to a flatten call in generator. There was also another that the tests
didn't catch, so I added a test for that case as well.
The work on this is not 100% complete, but everything is present to
allow real-world testing of the code. The only remaining major todo
item is to (hopefully!) enhance the handling of non-ASCII bytes in headers
converted to unicode by RFC2047 encoding them rather than replacing them with
'?'s.

Issue 7970: When email.Parser.Parser parses a MIME message of type
message/rfc822 it turns it into an object whose body consists of
a list containing a single Message object. HeaderParser, on the
other hand, just copies the body as a string. Generator.flatten
has a special handler for the message mime type that expected the
body to be the one item list. This fails if the message was parsed
by HeaderParser. So we now check to see if the body is a string
first, and if so just we just emit it.

I replaced sys.maxint with sys.maxsize in Lib/*.py. Does anybody see a problem with the change on Win 64bit platforms? Win 64's long is just 32bit but the sys.maxsize is now 2**63-1 on every 64bit platform.
Also added docs for sys.maxsize.
