R. David Murray added the comment: I'm inclined to think it isn't worth the effort, myself. I think a "validating" client would be a valuable tool, but that that isn't what the stdlib is focused on. But yes, let's hear Senthil's opinion.
(That said, I am in fact adding a lot of validation capabilities to the email package...but in general those are only a matter of exposing the information about parsing failures that the code then has to recover from, rather than adding extra parsing to detect non-compliance.) ---------- versions: +Python 3.2 -Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15799> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
