Martin Panter added the comment: I guess we could add this secret policy flag that the email parser checks. The solution should still be applied as a bug fix to 3.5 as well as 3.6+. I would have to make the flag “very” unique, to reduce the chance of it breaking user code. I.e. adding policy._strict_end_of_headers might interfere with somebody’s user-defined policy class, but maybe policy.__strict_end_of_headers__ is safe, since user code is not supposed to invent such attribute names. Or do you think it “_strict_end_of_headers” name is fair game since the policy stuff is/was provisional?
It would be good to fix 2.7. This bug, and the duplicate report, were both originally reported for 2.7. I haven’t looked at the situation there in detail, but it looks completely different. HTTPMessage is based on the “mimetools” package, and there is a lot more parsing code already in “httplib”. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue24363> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
