Hello everyone,
Today I stumbled over unexpected behaviour when parsing emails with Python 3.5.
mail is of type: <class 'email.message.EmailMessage'>
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "XXX", line YYY, in ZZZ
for attachment in mail.iter_attachments():
File "/usr/lib/python3.5/email/message.py", line 1025, in iter_attachments
parts = self.get_payload().copy()
AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'copy'
/usr/lib/python3.5/email/message.py calls self.get_payload().copy() without distinguishing between different possible return types of get_payload().
get_payload() belongs to class MIMEPart(Message)
From the (base) class Message:
"def get_payload(self, i=None, decode=False):
"""Return a reference to the payload.
The payload will either be a list object or a string."
So, it might return a string, which seems to be the case I'm hitting here.
The code in cpython trunk still looks identical apart from a few line offsets, so newer versions might be affected, too.
Am I doing something wrong or do we have a bug to squash here?
Thanks,
Sven |
