The application where Signum Support uses smtplib needs to be able to
report good error messages to the user when sending email fails. To
help in diagnosing problems it is useful to be able to report the
entire message sent by the server, not only the SMTP error code of the
offending command.
A lot of the functions in sendmail.py unfortunately discards the
message, leaving only the code. The enclosed patch fixes that
problem.
The enclosed patch also introduces a base class for exceptions that
include an SMTP error code and error message, and make the code and
message available on separate attributes, so that surrounding code can
deal with them in whatever way it sees fit. I've also added some
documentation to the exception classes.
The constructor will now raise an exception if it cannot connect to
the SMTP server.
The data() method will raise an SMTPDataError if it doesn't receive
the expected 354 code in the middle of the exchange.
According to section 5.2.10 of RFC 1123 a smtp client must accept "any
text, including no text at all" after the error code. If the response
of a HELO command contains no text self.helo_resp will be set to the
empty string (""). The patch fixes the test in the sendmail() method
so that helo_resp is tested against None; if it has the empty string
as value the sendmail() method would invoke the helo() method again.
The code no longer accepts a -1 reply from the ehlo() method in
sendmail().

"""
smtplib.py appends an extra blank line to the outgoing mail if the
`msg' argument to the sendmail method already contains a trailing
newline. This patch should fix the problem.

"""
Mostly I just re-added the SMTPRecipientsRefused exception
(the exeption object now has the appropriate info in it ) [Per had
removed this in his patch --GvR] and tweaked the behavior of the
sendmail method whence it throws the newly added SMTPHeloException (it
was closing the connection, which it shouldn't. whatever catches the
exception should do that. )
I pondered the change of the return values to tuples all around,
and after some thinking I decided that regularizing the return values was
too much of the Right Thing (tm) to not do.
My one concern is that code expecting an integer & getting a tuple
may fail silently.
(i.e. if it's doing :
x.somemethod() >= 400:
expecting an integer, the expression will always be true if it gets a
tuple instead. )
However, most smtplib code I've seen only really uses the
sendmail() method, so this wouldn't bother it. Usually code I've seen
that calls the other methods usually only calls helo() and ehlo() for
doing ESMTP, a feature which was not in the smtplib included with 1.5.1,
and thus I would think not much code uses it yet.

splitunc() parses UNC paths. The contributor of the UNC parsing in
splitdrive() doesn't like it, but I haven't heard a good reason to
keep it, and it causes some problems. (I think there's a
philosophical problem -- to me, the split*() functions are purely
syntactical, and the fact that \\foo is not a valid path doesn't mean
that it shouldn't be considered an absolute path.)
Also (quite separately, but strangely related to the philosophical
issue above) fix abspath() so that if win32api exists, it doesn't fail
when the path doesn't actually exist -- if GetFullPathName() fails,
fall back on the old strategy (join with getcwd() if neccessary, and
then use normpath()).

Fixed 'copy_file()' to use '_copy_file_contents()', not 'copyfile()'

Added "not copying" announcement in 'copy_file()'.
Wee comment fix.
If you send something like "PUT / HTTP/1.0" to something derived from
BaseHTTPServer that doesn't define do_PUT, you will get a response
that begins like this:
HTTP/1.0 501 Unsupported method ('do_PUT')
Server: SimpleHTTP/0.3 Python/1.5
Date: Tue, 30 Mar 1999 18:53:53 GMT
The server should complain about 'PUT' instead of 'do_PUT'. This
patch should fix the problem.

- It needlessly used the makefile() method for each response that is
read from the SMTP server.
- If the remote SMTP server closes the connection unexpectedly the
code raised an IndexError. It now raises an SMTPServerDisconnected
exception instead.
- The code now checks that all lines in a multiline response actually
contains an error code.

The Dragon approves.
allow using the 'a' flag as a mode for opening a GzipFile. gzip
files, surprisingly enough, can be concatenated and then decompressed;
the effect is to concatenate the two chunks of data.
If we support it on writing, it should also be supported on reading.
This *wasn't* trivial, and required rearranging the code in the
reading path, particularly the _read() method.
Raise IOError instead of RuntimeError in two cases, 'Not a gzipped file'
and 'Unknown compression method'
If a filename on Windows starts with \\, it is converted to a URL
which starts with ////. If this URL is passed to urlparse.urlparse
you get a path that starts with // (and an empty netloc). If you pass
the result back to urlparse.urlunparse, you get a URL that starts with
//, which is parsed differently by urlparse.urlparse. The fix is to
add the (empty) netloc with accompanying slashes if the path in
urlunparse starts with //. Do this for all schemes that use a netloc.
Pathnames of files on other hosts in the same domain
(\\host\path\to\file) are not translated correctly to URLs and back.
The URL should be something like file:////host/path/to/file.
Note that a combination of drive letter and remote host is not
possible.
netloc from the base url as the default netloc for the resulting url
even if the schemes differ.
Once upon a time, when the web was wild, this was a valuable hack
because some people had a URL referencing an ftp server colocated with
an http server without having the host in the ftp URL (so they could
replicate it or change the hostname easily).
More recently, after the file: scheme got added back to the list of
schemes that accept a netloc, it turns out that this caused weirdness
when joining an http: URL with a file: URL -- the resulting file: URL
would always inherit the host from the http: URL because the file:
scheme supports a netloc but in practice never has one.
There are two reasons to get rid of the old, once-valuable hack,
instead of removing the file: scheme from the uses_netloc list. One,
the RFC says that file: uses the netloc syntax, and does not endorse
the old hack. Two, neither netscape 4.5 nor IE 4.0 support the old
hack.
An attempt to execute grid_slaves with arguments (0,0) results in
*all* of the slaves being returned, not just the slave associated with
row 0, column 0. This is because the test for arguments in the method
does not test to see if row (and column) does not equal None, but
rather just whether is evaluates to non-false. A value of 0 fails
this test.
The module cmd requires for each do_xxx command a help_xxx
function. I think this is a little old fashioned.
Here is a patch: use the docstring as help if no help_xxx
function can be found.
[I'm tempted to rip out all the help_* functions from pdb, but I'll
resist it. Any takers? --Guido]
urlopen is used to specify form data, make sure the second argument is
threaded through all of the http_error_NNN calls. This allows error
handlers like the redirect and authorization handlers to properly
re-start the connection.
o the initial comment is wrong: creating messages is already
implemented
o Message.getbodytext: if the mail or it's part contains an
empty content-transfer-encoding header, the code used to
break; the change below treats an empty encoding value the same
as the other types that do not need decoding
o SubMessage.getbodytext was missing the decode argument; the
change below adds it; I also made it unconditionally return
the raw text if decoding was not desired, because my own
routines needed that (and it was easier than rewriting my
own routines ;-)
+ Implements a put_nowait method.
+ Adds a corresponding Queue.Full exception.
+ Simplifies the implementation by adding optional "block" args to get() and
put(), and makes the old get_nowait() and new put_nowait() one-line
redirections to get() and put().
+ Uses (much) simpler logic for the nowait cases.
+ Regularizes the doc strings to something closer to "Guido style" <wink>.
+ Converts two stray tabs into spaces.
+ Removes confusing verbiage about the queue "not being available" from the
docstrings -- never knew what that meant as a user, and after digging into
the implementation still didn't know what it was trying to say.
Also finally get rid of some obsolete commented-out access statements.
A note about the previous checkin: I believe it's correct, but I found
something strange: the file Lib/test/audiotest.au in the Python
distribution was evidently encoded in u-LAW format but had its
encoding set to 2, i.e. linear-8. I hope that this is a mistake
caused by some conversion program that produced this .au file; I just
found it on a website.
Fix leaking of instances by removing the elements variable that we
created on closing the parser. The elements variable is now created
in the reset() method, so that the sequence close(); reset();
... works.
Also, add the name of the entity reference that wasn't found to the
error message.
from Python 1.5.1:
If after __init__ finishes no new elements variable was created, this
patch will search the instance's namespace for all attributes whose
name start with start_ or end_ and put their value in a new elements
instance variable.
In the docstring of ConfigParser.py (Python 1.5.2b1):
read(*filenames) -- read and parse the list of named configuration files
should be:
read(filenames) -- read and parse the list of named configuration files
The method accepts a list, not a bunch of positional arguments.
Which is good, the list is much more convenient.
applied to all filenames before they are compared, looked up in the
breaks dictionary, etc. The default implementation does nothing --
it's implented as fast as possible via str(). A useful implementation
would make everything a absolute, e.g. return os.path.normcase(
os.path.abspath(filename)).
