These aren't so much bugs, as you don't seem to be handling your string types. You may have to do a check and convert formats, but both of these are a few lines of code to handle, 2383 there is even a code example posted.
I think your "false expectation" was that Google would loosen the Typing (and therefore the security) of their platform to accommodate your lack of coding experience. From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of PK Sent: Friday, March 16, 2012 1:15 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [google-appengine] Really frustrated by Google's inaction on fixing certain e-mail bugs for years I have a python application that uses mail for communication and notifications. In many occasions I have defended in this list how well mail has been working for me. However, there are a few bugs that really bother some of my users and I have been expecting a fix for years. I am frustrated because they are relatively small things and I had the---obviously false---expectation that they would get fixed. Here are two at the top of my list: Issue 2383 <http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=2383> Filed on Nov 11 2009 8bit Mail encoding Issue 3900 <http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=3900> Filed on Oct 17 2010 Incoming e-mail message with attachments in Unicode fails in _check_attachments() If you do not fix these issues I cannot scale my enterprise and if we do not scale our enterprises how will you scale yours? If you never plan to fix them, at least please let us know that mail is just a toy/prototype/experiment and not a professional platform so we can move elsewhere.
