Mauro Cicognini added the comment: The removal of the dead code causes imaplib under py3k to lose the quoting functionality that is described in documentation (except for passwords, that do get always quoted as stated).
I submit that we give at least a temporary warning in the docs, and that the _quote() function is exposed to let the programmer do their own quoting when they feel it necessary. ---------- nosy: +Mauro.Cicognini versions: +Python 3.3 -Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue917120> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
