The example works for me if I make this change:

parser = email.parser.FeedParser()

full_msg = parser.close()

msgs = full_msg.get_payload()
However this seems iffy to me because the content length presumably counts
bytes whereas self.fp seems to be a text file, but since most HTTP clients
don't close the connection, without some kind of boundary on the read() call it
just hangs forever.
Also someone pointed out to me offline that this change may be needed,
separately (though I haven't confirmed this yet):
