New submission from Florian Klink <flo...@flokli.de>:
I'm importing some mbox archives into my maildirs, and use `mailbox.mbox` to parse archives created by pipermail. Some of these archives seem to contain non-ascii characters, and python just throws a `UnicodeDecodeError` and refuses to process the archive. Reproducer: (successful on 3.7.9, 3.8.5, 3.9.0) ``` curl https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2016-January.txt.gz | zcat > mbox.txt python3 -c "import mailbox; mb = mailbox.mbox('mbox.txt');mb.items()" ``` ---------- components: email messages: 381607 nosy: barry, flokli, r.david.murray priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: mailbox.mbox fails on non ASCII characters versions: Python 3.7, Python 3.8, Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue42433> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
