There's still a bit of mystery in here for me...
I'll be taking responsibility for the message in my code... but perhaps
my code encounters a non resolvable error (such as disc full). In that
case I would like to be able to signal a failure instead of success.
Would the following code do the job "properly"?
def eomReceived(self):
# message is complete, store it
self.lines.append('') # add a trailing newline
messageData = '\n'.join(self.lines)
emailMessage = message_from_string(messageData)
try:
processEmail(emailMessage)
return defer.succeed(None)
except:
return defer.fail
#end eomReceived
thanks,
Jan
