[issue4683] urllib2.HTTPDigestAuthHandler fails on third hostname?

Dan added the comment: Actually, this does look more like an urllib2 bug. According to RFC 2617, the nonce count should represent the number of requests sent with a particular nonce. But we don't reset the nonce count when we start using a new nonce. That discrepancy in nonce counts causes LJ to

New submission from Ben Artin : RFC 2822 allows for certain headers to be spread across multiple lines (section 2.2.3). In particular, subject, comments, and keywords headers behave this way (section 3.6.5). I think the email module should unfold such headers. See attached patch. --
