SF bug #1403349 solution for email 3.0; some MUAs use the 'file' parameter
name in the Content-Distribution header, so Message.get_filename() should fall
back to using that. Will port to the Python 2.5 trunk.
Also, bump the email package version to 3.0.1 for eventual release. Of
course, add a test case too.
XXX Need to update the documentation.
caused by a self._input.readline() call that wasn't checking for the
NeedsMoreData marker.
msg_43.txt contains a message that illustrates the problem, when
email.message_from_*() is called. That interface uses the Parser API, which
splits reads into 8192 byte chunks. It so happens that for the test message,
the 8192 chunk falls inside a message/delivery-status, which is where in the
FeedParser the readline() call was that didn't check for NeedsMoreData.
I also added an assert to unreadline() so it'll be more evident if an attempt
to push back NeedsMoreData ever happens again.
Bump the email package version number.
Briefly (from the NEWS file):
- Updates for the email package:
+ All deprecated APIs that in email 2.x issued warnings have been removed:
_encoder argument to the MIMEText constructor, Message.add_payload(),
Utils.dump_address_pair(), Utils.decode(), Utils.encode()
+ New deprecations: Generator.__call__(), Message.get_type(),
Message.get_main_type(), Message.get_subtype(), the 'strict' argument to
the Parser constructor. These will be removed in email 3.1.
+ Support for Python earlier than 2.3 has been removed (see PEP 291).
+ All defect classes have been renamed to end in 'Defect'.
+ Some FeedParser fixes; also a MultipartInvariantViolationDefect will be
added to messages that claim to be multipart but really aren't.
+ Updates to documentation.
in some locales. This code simplifies the boundary algorithm to use
randint() which is what we wanted anyway.
Bump package version to 2.5.3.
Backport candidate for Python 2.2.3
Python 2.1.3. However it's required by the email tests suite, so poke
it into the encodings aliases if it's missing. The is apparently the
approved API for doing so.
Now we can remove the hexversion shortcircuits in the test suite.
Move the imports of Parser and Message inside the
message_from_string() and message_from_file() functions. This way
just "import email" won't suck in most of the submodules of the
package.
Note: this will break code that relied on "import email" giving you a
bunch of the submodules, but that was never documented and should not
have been relied on.
for the email package. The former is now just a shell project that
has some extra files for packaging for independent use (e.g. setup.py
and README).
Added a compatibility layer so that the same API can be used in Python
2.1 and 2.2/2.3 with the major differences shuffled off into helper
modules (_compat21.py and _compat22.py).
Also bumped the package version number to 2.0.3 for some fixes to be
checked in momentarily.
non-us-ascii character sets in headers and bodies. Some API changes
(with DeprecationWarnings for the old APIs). Better RFC-compliant
implementations of base64 and quoted-printable.
Updated test cases. Documentation updates to follow (after I finish
writing them ;).
<http://sf.net/projects/mimelib>. There /are/ API differences between
mimelib and email, but most of the implementations are shared (except
where cool Py2.2 stuff like generators are used).
