Hello, this week I looked at some debian mbox archives which I got from my mentor. I found more problems in my program which caused incorrect parsing of mbox files (parsing problems when unknown or stupid values was in Content-Transfer-Encoding header or whitespace name in From) and more serious problem that external module which I was using causing total freeze of program (infinite loop). I fixed parsing problems, so my program should interpret data from mbox/mime emails better and also contacted maintainer of that problematic perl module. As maintainer is on vacation now, he cannot look at it yet. My mentor recommended me another perl module which he already tested on debian archives. So I rewrote code to use that module and my program now can read & parse all emails in debian-devel mbox archives which I have (at least I do not see crash, fatal errors infinite loops or damaged output data).
