Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Python Library Group: Python 2.3 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Mathieu Goutelle (mgoutell) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Header.decode_header eats up spaces Initial Comment: The Header.decode_header function eats up spaces in non-encoded part of a header. See the following source: # -*- coding: iso-8859-1 -*- from email.Header import Header, decode_header h = Header('Essai ', None) h.append('éè', 'iso-8859-1') print h print decode_header(h) This prints: Essai =?iso-8859-1?q?=E9=E8?= [('Test', None), ('\xe9\xe8', 'iso-8859-1')] This should print: Essai =?iso-8859-1?q?=E9=E8?= [('Test ', None), ('\xe9\xe8', 'iso-8859-1')] ^ This space disappears This appears in Python 2.3 but the source code of the function didn't change in 2.4 so the same problem should still exist. Bug "[ 1372770 ] email.Header should preserve original FWS" may be linked to that one although I'm not sure this is exactly the same. This patch (not extensively tested though) seems to solve this problem: --- /usr/lib/python2.3/email/Header.py 2005-09-05 00:20:03.000000000 +0200 +++ Header.py 2006-04-10 12:27:27.000000000 +0200 @@ -90,7 +90,7 @@ continue parts = ecre.split(line) while parts: - unenc = parts.pop(0).strip() + unenc = parts.pop(0).rstrip() if unenc: # Should we continue a long line? if decoded and decoded[-1][1] is None: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1467619&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
