Oleg Kalnichevski commented on MIME4J-52:
-----------------------------------------
I'll look into fixing the infinite loop. Unfortunately I do not see an easy way
of fixing the way corrupt multipart entities are parsed. The parser in its
present form tracks only one boundary at a time. It can't resume looking for
the outer boundary until the inner one is properly terminated. This approach
has its advantages and disadvantages: on the plus side it is more efficient
both in terms performance and the memory footprint. Also, the parser can handle
correctly inner body parts that may accidentally contain the outer boundary. On
the negative side, malformed multipart entities mess the rest of the message up
completely.

The < to <= change already fix the infinite loop.
Whether we want to keep the current behaviour or revamp the old
behaviour is something we have to discuss in the list.
I think Niklas and other old-time mime4j users can help us with this
dilemma.
In the mean time I'm preparing new messages for the test suite so we
have something concrete to discuss.
