Category: Unicode Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Stuart Bishop (zenzen) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: 'macintosh' encoding alias for 'mac_roman' Initial Comment: OS X's Mail.app can generate Subject lines like: Subject: =?MACINTOSH?B?vLu7vMGqo6KwpKalu7w=?= (Which decodes to '\xbc\xbb\xbb\xbc\xc1\xaa\xa3\xa2\xb0\xa4\xa6\xa5\xbb\xb c') This appears to be what Python calls the mac_roman encoding. I suggest adding 'macintosh' as an alias to 'mac_roman' to encodings/aliases.py to allow the email package to decode these headers. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Jens Klein (yenzenz) Date: 2004-12-18 23:49 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=474612 +1 from me Archetypes (a Zope framework) runs also in a problem because of the missing alias. more infos: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php? func=detail&aid=1068001&group_id=75272&atid=543430 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Stuart Bishop (zenzen) Date: 2003-11-17 11:47 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=46639 The test was just a sequence of random high-bit characters: ºªªº¡™£¢?§¶•ªº (lets see if the web interface lets that through). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: M.-A.

The decoded string you give does not look like anything readable... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=355470&aid=843590&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
