I have a (fairly simple) Python program that scans through a
'catchall' E-Mail address for things that *might* be for me. It sends
anything that could be for me to my main E-Mail and discards the rest.
However I *occasionally* get an error from it as follows:-
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/chris/.mutt/bin/getCatchall.py", line 65, in <module>
pop3.dele(i+1)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/poplib.py", line 240, in dele
return self._shortcmd('DELE %s' % which)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/poplib.py", line 160, in _shortcmd
return self._getresp()
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/poplib.py", line 132, in _getresp
resp, o = self._getline()
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/poplib.py", line 377, in _getline
raise error_proto('line too long')
poplib.error_proto: line too long
Does anyone have any idea how I can program around this somehow? As
it is at the moment I have to go to the webmail system at my ISP and
manually delete the message which is a bit of a nuisance.
How about a try/except in your code that catches poplib.error_proto?
