Fixed a typo in the email.encoders module so that messages output using an ISO-2022 character set will use a content-transfer-encoding of 7bit consistently. Previously if the input data had any eight bit characters the output data would get marked as 8bit even though it was actually 7bit. ........ ................ r80855 | r.david.murray | 2010-05-05 21:41:14 -0400 (Wed, 05 May 2010) | 24 lines Merged revisions 80800 via svnmerge from svn+ssh://pythondev@svn.python.org/python/trunk It turns out that email5 (py3k), because it is using unicode for the payload, doesn't do the encoding to the output character set until later in the process. Specifically, charset.body_encode no longer does the input-to-output charset conversion. So the if test in the exception clause in encoders.encode_7or8bit really is needed in email5. So, this merge only merges the test, not the removal of the 'if'. ........ r80800 | r.david.murray | 2010-05-05 13:31:03 -0400 (Wed, 05 May 2010) | 9 lines Issue #7472: remove unused code from email.encoders.encode_7or8bit. Yukihiro Nakadaira noticed a typo in encode_7or8bit that was trying to special case iso-2022 codecs. It turns out that the code in question is never used, because whereas it was designed to trigger if the payload encoding was eight bit but its output encoding was 7 bit, in practice the payload is always converted to the 7bit encoding before encode_7or8bit is called.
