for gotonext() pushing self.pos past the end of the string. This can
happen if the message has a To field like "To: :" and you call
msg.getaddrlist('to').
Problem: rfc822.py in 1.5.2 final loses the quotes around
quoted local-part names.
The fix is to preserve the quotes around a local-part
name in an address.
Test:
import rfc822
a = rfc822.AddrlistClass('(Comment stuff) "Quoted
name"@somewhere.com')
a.getaddrlist()
The correct result is:
[('Comment stuff', '"Quoted name"@somewhere.com')]
named header, so that if a message has, e.g. multiple CC: lines, all
will get returned by the call to getaddrlist(). It also correctly
handles addresses which show up in continuation lines.
AdderlistClass.__init__(): Added \n to self.CR which fixes a bug that
sometimes, an address would contain a bogus trailing newline.
Message.getaddress(): In final else clause, added a test for the
character we're at being in self.specials. Without this, such
characters never get consumed and we infloop. Case in point (as
posted to c.l.py):
To: <[smtp:dd47@mail.xxx.edu]_at_hmhq@hdq-mdm1-imgout.companay.com>
----------------------------^
otherwise we'd infloop here
Extended the rfc822 parsedate routines to handle the cases they failed
on in an archive of ~37,000 messages. I believe the changes are
compatible, in that all previously correct parsing are still correct.
[I still see problems with some messages, but no showstoppers.]
- explain seekable
- when seekable==1, test fp.tell() and set it to 0 if that fails
- support overridable method iscomment(line) to weed out comments
- check for unread() method on file object before trying to seek
And one of my own:
- Add a get() method which behaves like a dictionary's get(); this is
actually implemented by giving getheader() an optional second argument
to specify the default, and aliasing get to getheader.
the comma after the day name is optional if it is a recognized day
name; and the date and month may be swapped. Thus, the following two
test dates will now be parsed correctly:
Thu, Feb 13 12:16:57 1992
Thu Feb 13 12:16:57 1992
constructors. There is no backward compatibility. Not everything has
been tested.
