Bug: mailbox.Maildir can corrupt mails
by Mario Thies June 9, 2020

June 9, 2020

Hi, using mailbox.Maildir and flushing mails back to maildir can write corrupt mails. Maildir-Snippet to reproduce the Bug: https://cloud.snowpaws.de/s/8EmznCyrCRLw6Wc The zip contains 2 mails, the fist one is the original and the 2nd the modified mail after flushing back to the filesystem (using flush() and close()). As you can see, the trailing spaces behind Content-Type: application/zip; and Content-Disposition: attachment; are stripped. Simple code to verify this bug: import mailbox mbox = mailbox.Maildir('Maildir', factory=None) for key, msg in mbox.iteritems(): print (key, len(str(msg))) 1-1591696223.M162682P2321254.deb-srv2.snowpaws.de,S=_5533_,W=5621_2, _5531_ 2-1591696223.M162682P2321254.deb-srv2.snowpaws.de,S=5533,W=5621_2,FS 5531 The cached size 5533 is now unequal to the real filesize. The result is a flood of server error messages. I checked it with 3.7.3 and 3.8.2 on debian and windows, mailbox ver. 0.4 -- with kind regards, Mario

[issue24914] Python: Not just OO style but this is not mentioned on python.org or in FAQ
by Paddy McCarthy June 8, 2020

June 8, 2020

New submission from Paddy McCarthy: Just read http://www.ibmsystemsmag.com/ibmi/developer/general/different-world-python/… It states that they could have had an officially supported version of Python on that IBM platform much earlier but for this: > "The second was that everything we read on Python, and all the examples we encountered, led us to believe that it was a completely object oriented (OO) language" They may have used it earlier had they known then that Python can be written in a procedural style they having no love of Java's OO, but being able to use PHP and access PHP's OO bits. Looking again on python.org, the examples are not OO, but when you delve down, say to the FAQ - it gives the mistaken impression that OO is the _only_ style of programming supported: https://docs.python.org/2/faq/general.html#what-is-python Somehow we need to explain that OO is an implementation style, but the language allows code to be written in just as much - or as little, of proceedural/OO/functional styles as the programmer is comfortable with. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 248987 nosy: Paddy McCarthy, docs@python priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Python: Not just OO style but this is not mentioned on python.org or in FAQ type: enhancement _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue24914> _______________________________________

[issue33187] Document ElementInclude (XInclude) support in ElementTree
by Stefan Behnel June 8, 2020

June 8, 2020

New submission from Stefan Behnel <stefan_ml(a)behnel.de>: The ElementInclude module in ElementTree seems undocumented. I couldn't find any documentation in the stdlib docs. Pretty much the only source that I could find is here: http://effbot.org/zone/element-xinclude.htm I noticed it while looking for a place to document the changes of #20928. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 314691 nosy: docs@python, scoder priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Document ElementInclude (XInclude) support in ElementTree type: enhancement _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33187> _______________________________________
