Summary: Mailbox will not lock properly after flush()
Initial Comment:
The _singlefileMailbox class will try to lock the wrong
file object after a flush(), resulting into an
operation on a closed file object.
The following code should illustrate the bug. See also
the attached patch.
>>> import mailbox
>>>
>>> box = mailbox.mbox('mbox')
>>> msg = "Subject: sub\n\nbody\n"
>>> box.add(msg)
0
>>> box.flush()
>>> box.close()
>>>
>>> box = mailbox.mbox('mbox')
>>> box.lock()
>>> box.add(msg)
1
>>> box.flush()
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/mailbox.py", line 581, in flush
_lock_file(new_file, dotlock=False)
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/mailbox.py", line 1847, in
_lock_file
fcntl.lockf(f, fcntl.LOCK_UN)
ValueError: I/O operation on closed file
