[New-bugs-announce] [issue14734] Use binascii.b2a_qp/a2b_qp in email package header handling?

[R. David Murray]

New submission from R. David Murray <rdmurray at bitdance.com>:

Currently the email package uses its own custom quoted printable encode/decode implementation for handling header quoted printable CTE encoding and decoding.  It could be that using binascii would work, and be more performant.  Or it might not be, but it seems like it might be worth investigating.
