Yes, native support would be obviously very nice. In addition, there
seems to be a slight issue with this hack I described in my previous
e-mail. Now the /usr/bin/unattended-upgrade script also uses this
wrapper and now some characters in the e-mail body are encoded. For
example:
Allowed origins are:
['origin=3DDebian,codename=3Dstretch,label=3DDebian-Se=curity']
The /usr/bin/unattended-upgrade sends the e-mail like this:
def _send_mail_using_sendmail(from_address, to_address, subject, body):
# format as a proper mail
msg = Message()
msg['Subject'] = subject
msg['From'] = from_address
msg['To'] = to_address
# order is important here, Message() first, then Charset()
# then msg.set_charset()
charset = email.charset.Charset("utf-8")
charset.body_encoding = email.charset.QP
msg.set_payload(body, charset)
# and send it away
sendmail = subprocess.Popen(
[SENDMAIL_BINARY, "-oi", "-t"],
stdin=subprocess.PIPE, universal_newlines=True)
sendmail.stdin.write(msg.as_string())
sendmail.stdin.close()
ret = sendmail.wait()
return ret
What might cause this? I thought that "/usr/sbin/sendmail -oi -t" and
"/usr/bin/mailx -t" are equal.
thanks,
Martin
