Christian Heimes added the comment: RFC 1939 says:
Responses in the POP3 consist of a status indicator and a keyword possibly followed by additional information. All responses are terminated by a CRLF pair. Responses may be up to 512 characters long, including the terminating CRLF. It doesn't say anything about the length of a line in a multi-line response. It's reasonable to belief that 512 octets are valid, too. We could quadruple the limit to 2048 in order to be safe. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16041> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
