---------------------------------------------
Summary: Tab-prefixed message body lines in Mbox interpreted as
headers
Key: TIKA-2471
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-2471
Project: Tika
Issue Type: Bug
Components: parser
Affects Versions: 1.16
Reporter: Matthew Caruana Galizia
The mbox parser code is overly optimistic. It parses the entire message looking
for anything that matches a header pattern, wherever it occurs in a line!
It looks to me like the parsing logic is in desperate need of a refactor. But
more to the point, what is the idea behind setting the headers in the
MboxParser if they're going to be set by the RFC822Parser in any case?
Also, out of curiosity, why does the parser force Windows-1252 as the charset?
