New submission from Robert: email.utils.parseaddr() does not successfully parse a field value into a (comment, address) pair if the FROM header has 2 lines (or more) containing odd number of double quotes in each of them. The address in such tuple is not e-mail address but a part of comment.
For example: "=?UTF-8?Q?Anita_=W4=86ieckli=C5=84ska_|_PATO_Nieruch?= =?UTF-8?Q?omo=C5=9Bci?=" <anita.wiecklin...@pato.com.pl> is parsed into: ('', '=?UTF-8?Q?Anita_=W4=86ieckli=C5=84ska_|_PATO_Nieruch?=') Full example on Python 2.7.12, email 4.0.2: Python 2.7.12 (default, Nov 19 2016, 06:48:10) [GCC 5.4.0 20160609] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> from email.utils import parseaddr >>> parseaddr('"=?UTF8?Q?Anita_=W4=86ieckli=C5=84ska_|_PATO_Nieruch?=\r\n >>> =?UTF-8?Q?omo=C5=9Bci?=" <anita.wiecklin...@pato.com.pl>') ('', '=?UTF-8?Q?Anita_=W4=86ieckli=C5=84ska_|_PATO_Nieruch?=') When double quotes or \r\n are removed, header is parsed without problems. The same issue exists on python 3.5.2 and email 6.0.0a1. >From headers analysis I know that e-mail was made in Outlook 14.0 then send >through Exim 4.87 to outlook.com servers. ---------- messages: 299558 nosy: robertus priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: email.utils.parseaddr fails on odd double quotes in multiline header versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.5 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue31089> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
