Petri Lehtinen <pe...@digip.org> added the comment: The default mode for reading mbox files should also be modified a bit to maximize the support fordifferent implementations. See #11728.
I think we should still use the mboxo format by default when writing, and the "default" format of RFC 4155 when reading. We could then add a "format" parameter to the mbox constructor to alter the writing and/or reading behavior to match a specific mbox format. According to RFC 4155, the best reference for different mbox formats is http://qmail.org./man/man5/mbox.html. ---------- components: +email nosy: +barry _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13698> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
