Category: Python Library Group: Python 2.4 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Lars Kellogg-Stedman (larsks) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: mailbox.PortableUnixMailbox fails to parse 'From ' in body Initial Comment: I have a Unix mailbox file that contains the following text in the body of a message: ---[ cut here ]--- EFCO also offers casements with integral blinds. See:=20 http://www.efcocorp.com/public/earm/products/default.asp?j=3D1&P=3D43&L=3D= 1=20 >From that page, select select "Features and Benefits" from under the heading "Product Overview"=20 ---[ cut here ]--- mailbox.PortableUnixMailbox erroneously interprets the "From" at the beginning of the line as the beginning of a new message. Since 'From ' is only a valid header at the beginning of a message, perhaps the module could look at the following line and see if it looks like an RFC2822 header before accepting 'From ' as a message delimiter. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Hasan Diwan (hdiwan650) Date: 2006-04-14 01:30 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1185570 Use rfc822.py in lieu of mailbox to first parse the message into an rfc822.Message... then pass it to the Mailbox.PortableUnixMailbox constructor. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1470212&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
