Hi Matthew! Thank you for releasing the application! The standard mail library would be a great addition to TG.
1. Question: with one SMTP connection per thread, can it handle large email volumes? 2. Since I was struggling with mail coding lately, few notes that may be handy :) - there should be charset parameter available for specifying different text encoding. (as a sidenote, when it's utf-8, python email library will *always* transfer-encode it as base64. Very annoying) - python email library doesnt care about line length. When using transfer-encoding other than base64, TurboMail should check that the line length doesnt exceed 998 characters (RFC 2822). (Some mail servers just chop it off :D) Format flowed library is handy for this (and of course for format-flowed part :) : http://www.zopatista.com/projects/formatflowed - mail headers doesnt have to be ascii-only, the reason to use Header module: http://docs.python.org/lib/module-email.header.html - I think "embed" method of Message class should also check if the file already embedded and/or if the name is already in use - the outer part of TurboMail message is always "related". I believe it should be "alternative" when plain text alternative is available: 0. multipart / alternative 0.1. text / plain 0.2. multipart / related 0.2.1. text / html 0.2.2. attachment 1 0.2.3. attachment 2 - I think TurboMail should take care of creating plain text alternative for html messages. There are several tools that can do it: http://userpage.fu-berlin.de/~mbayer/tools/html2text.html http://www.aaronsw.com/2002/html2text/ http://www.zope.org/Members/chrisw/StripOGram Just my 2 eurocents :) --Ksenia On 10/4/06, Matthew Bevan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > A updated 1.0.1 version is now available which includes the following: > > * Minor updates to remove unneeded arguments. > * Complete source-level epydoc documentation. > > Documentation is viewable in the source code and online at the > following URL: > > http://www.topfloor.ca/turbomail/documentation/reference/ > > To update an existing TurboMail installation, run the following: > > easy_install -U TurboMail > > If you have not yet installed TurboMail, run the above without the -U > option; the latest version will automatically be used. > > Have a great day, > Matthew Bevan, Systems Administrator > Top Floor Computer Systems Ltd. > > > > > > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
