New submission from HiroakiKawai <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: I had some problems when I wanted to do attach a huge data file (such as mp3, avi, or etc.) to an email. Current smtpd.py in Python2.5 calls process_message that takes a string for its argument. This cause python running process to consume too much memory.
I'd like to suggest an alternative method for this purpose process_message_huge that takes a file-descriptor for its argument. The patch will use process_message_huge if the method exists, otherwise, it will call process_message with a string that will consume a huge memory for backward compatibility. ---------- components: Library (Lib) files: smtpd.patch keywords: patch messages: 64776 nosy: kawai severity: normal status: open title: smtpd.py to handle huge email type: security versions: Python 2.5 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file9909/smtpd.patch __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2518> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
