R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment: We've concluded that the email package does need to be able to read bytes. To do this and still support reading text, we're going to have to change the API. So the docs will get fixed when they get rewritten for the new API.
Patches to the 3.1 docs to clarify the current situation would probably be accepted and applied, but I suspect the email team is not going to provide them due to lack of time :(. ---------- nosy: +r.david.murray priority: -> normal resolution: -> postponed versions: +Python 3.2 -Python 3.0 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4766> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
