Well, here is the long-asked-for 'fp_mailbox.py' test thing.
Note: it generates a 'test.mbox' in CWD!
print("USAGE: fp_mailbox.py 0|1|2",
" 0 = use raw UTF-8 string",
" 1 = use UTF-8 string",
" 2 = use escaped byte string", sep="\n")
It does not use FeedParser directly, but email.message_from_*. It's simple
minded, but a dumb new python(1) user (like me) does not know otherwise, i
guess. Of course the input is malformed, but, you know, shit happens (you may
trust me in respect to that). I want to point out that .defects is the empty
list, even though the input is *not* correctly converted (quopri/base64) and
blows mailbox.add later on for test cases 0 and 1 (resulting in corrupted
mailbox files). 2 does not cause a traceback and is mailbox.add()ed, but the
resulting mail is not standart-conforming either. For me and my (S-)Postman
all of this means that i have to encapsulate all of this with a
'MessageBuilder' layer on top of the python(1) builtin email package.
I personally will encapsulate the email.* stuff with a MessageBuilder
