- Issue829951: In the smtplib module, SMTP.starttls() now complies with
RFC 3207 and forgets any knowledge obtained from the server not obtained
from the TLS negotiation itself. Patch contributed by Bill Fenner.
Found them using::
find . -name '*.py' | while read i ; do grep 'def[^(]*( ' $i /dev/null ; done
find . -name '*.py' | while read i ; do grep ' ):' $i /dev/null ; done
(I was doing this all over my own code anyway, because I'd been using spaces in
all defs, so I thought I'd make a run on the Python code as well. If you need
to do such fixes in your own code, you can use xx-rename or parenregu.el within
emacs.)
smtplib can not log in to some server using command AUTH PLAIN, it sends
``user\0user\0pass'' to the server, but ``\0user\0pass'' has better
compatibility.
The problem was that it expected rfc822.parseaddr() to return None
upon a parse failure. The actual, documented return value for a
parse failure is (None, None).
Closes SF bug 602029.
which requires that if there are ehlo parameters returned with an ehlo
keyword (in the response to EHLO), the keyword and parameters must be
delimited by an ASCII space. Thus responses like
250-AUTH=LOGIN
should be ignored as non-conformant to the RFC (the `=' isn't allowed
in the ehlo keyword).
This is a bug fix candidate.
better local_hostname default. According to RFC 2821, it is
recommended that the fqdn hostname be provided in the EHLO/HELO verb
and if that can't be calculated, to use a domain literal.
The rationale for this change is documented in SF patch #497736 which
also had privacy concerns about leaking the fqdn in the EHLO/HELO. We
decided this wasn't a big concern because no user data is leaked, and
the IP will always be leaked. The local_hostname argument is provided
for those clients that are super paranoid.
Using localhost.localdomain may break some strict smtp servers so we
decided against using it as the default.
This patch adds the features from RFC 2487 (Secure SMTP
over TLS) to the smtplib module:
- A starttls() function
- Wrapper classes that simulate enough of sockets and
files for smtplib, but really wrap a SSLObject
- reset the list of known SMTP extensions at each call
of ehlo(). This should have been the case anyway.

(With slight layout changes to conform to docstrings guidelines and to
prevent a line longer than 78 characters. Also fixed some docstrings
that Gerhard didn't touch.)
also modified check_all function to suppress all warnings since they aren't
relevant to what this test is doing (allows quiet checking of regsub, for
instance)
'helo' and 'ehlo' message, and exports the 'make_fqdn' function. This
function should be moved to socket.py, if that module ever gets a Python
wrapper.
comments, docstrings or error messages. I fixed two minor things in
test_winreg.py ("didn't" -> "Didn't" and "Didnt" -> "Didn't").
There is a minor style issue involved: Guido seems to have preferred English
grammar (behaviour, honour) in a couple places. This patch changes that to
American, which is the more prominent style in the source. I prefer English
myself, so if English is preferred, I'd be happy to supply a patch myself ;)
