I'm not 100% sure if this is bug, or whether my understand of unicode is
wrong. Nevertheless Django 1.11 behaves differently than 1.10.7. Using
Django 1.10.7, if I send an Email using EmailMessage, but I encode the
subject and body with UTF-8, it sends successfully. For example:
{{{#!python
email = EmailMessage("asd’asd".encode("utf-8"), "asd’asd".encode("utf-8"),
"[email protected]", ["[email protected]"])
email.send()
}}}
But if I run the same code in Django 1.11, it throws an exception because
of the unicode character that was used:
'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe2 in position 92: ordinal not in
range(128)
So, might there be a bug in 1.11, or should I not be using the ".encode"?
(Was using that because of weird user input)
And furthermore, why does pre-1.11 not throw an exception?
I thank you for you attention.
