New submission from Henning von Bargen: I'm using CPython 2.7 with the smtplib and email modules to send emails with SMTP. Today, one of our clients complained that the email sent is not RFC 5322 compliant because the required Date header is missing. The RFC states in section 3.6.:
"The only required header fields are the origination date field and the originator address field(s). All other header fields are syntactically optional." Our program has been sending millions of email message this way and this is the first complaint. I guess that the library doesn't add the header field automatically. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 282425 nosy: Henning.von.Bargen priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: smtplib RFC 5322 date header missing versions: Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue28879> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
