* Avoid exception if there's a stray directory inside a Maildir folder.Andrew M. Kuchling2007-07-141-1/+5
| | | | | | | The Maildir specification doesn't seem to say anything about this situation, and it can happen if you're keeping a Maildir mailbox in Subversion (.svn directories) or some similar system. The patch just ignores directories in the cur/, new/, tmp/ folders.

* [Apply length-checking.diff from bug #1599254]Andrew M. Kuchling2006-12-201-2/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add length checking to single-file mailbox formats: before doing a flush() on a mailbox, seek to the end and verify its length is unchanged, raising ExternalClashError if the file's length has changed. This fix avoids potential data loss if some other process appends to the mailbox file after the table of contents has been generated; instead of overwriting the modified file, you'll get the exception. I also noticed that the self._lookup() call in self.flush() wasn't necessary (everything that sets self._pending to True also calls self.lookup()), and replaced it by an assertion. 2.5 backport candidate.

* Remove file-locking in MH.pack() method.Andrew M. Kuchling2006-11-171-21/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change looks massive but it's mostly a re-indenting after removing some try...finally blocks. Also adds a test case that does a pack() while the mailbox is locked; this test would have turned up bugs in the original code on some platforms. In both nmh and GNU Mailutils' implementation of MH-format mailboxes, no locking is done of individual message files when renaming them. The original mailbox.py code did do locking, which meant that message files had to be opened. This code was buggy on certain platforms (found through reading the code); there were code paths that closed the file object and then called _unlock_file() on it. Will backport to 25-maint once I see how the buildbots react to this patch.
* [Patch #1514543] mailbox (Maildir): avoid losing messages on name clashAndrew M. Kuchling2006-11-091-5/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | Two changes: Where possible, use link()/remove() to move files into a directory; this makes it easier to avoid overwriting an existing file. Use _create_carefully() to create files in tmp/, which uses O_EXCL. Backport candidate.

| | | | | | | Both the Maildir and MH classes had this bug; the patch fixes both classes and adds a test. Will backport to 25-maint.

* [Bug #1512163] Use one set of locking methods, lockf();Andrew M. Kuchling2006-06-261-12/+2
| | | | | | | | | remove the flock() calls. On FreeBSD, the two methods lockf() and flock() end up using the same mechanism and the second one fails. A Linux man page claims that the two methods are orthogonal (so locks acquired one way don't interact with locks acquired the other way) but that clearly must be false.
* [Bug #1512163] Fix typo.Andrew M. Kuchling2006-06-261-1/+1
| | | | | This change will probably break tests on FreeBSD buildbots, but I'll check in a fix for that next.
* Change WindowsError to carry the Win32 error code in winerror,Martin v. Löwis2006-05-111-28/+0

* Add Gregory K. Johnson's revised version of mailbox.py (funded byAndrew M. Kuchling2006-04-221-145/+1892
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | the 2005 Summer of Code). The revision adds a number of new mailbox classes that support adding and removing messages; these classes also support mailbox locking and default to using email.Message instead of rfc822.Message. The old mailbox classes are largely left alone for backward compatibility. The exception is the Maildir class, which was present in the old module and now inherits from the new classes. The Maildir class's interface is pretty simple, though, so I think it'll be compatible with existing code. (The change to the NEWS file also adds a missing word to a different news item, which unfortunately required rewrapping the line.)

| | | | | '\037\014\n' (see http://quimby.gnus.org/notes/BABYL) so look for that as well, so that applications won't get '\037' as the last line of the last message.

* SF bug #461073: mailbox __iter__ bug, by Andrew Dalke.Guido van Rossum2001-09-131-3/+3
| | | | | | | Andrew quite correctly notices that the next() method isn't quite what we need, since it returns None upon end instead of raising StopIteration. His fix is easy enough, using iter(self.next, None) instead.

* Get rid of the seek() method on the _Mailbox class. This was aGuido van Rossum2001-04-151-8/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | cut-and-paste copy of the seek() method on the _Subfile class, but it didn't make one bit of sense: it sets self.pos, which is not used in this class or its subclasses, and it uses self.start and self.stop, which aren't defined on this class or its subclasses. This is purely my own fault -- I added this in rev 1.4 and apparently never tried to use it. Since it's not documented, and of very questionable use given that there's no tell(), I'm ripping it out. This resolves SF bug 416199 by Andrew Dalke: mailbox.py seek problems.
* Two changes:Barry Warsaw2001-01-311-12/+43
| | | | | | | | | | | | - All constructors grow an optional argument `factory' which is a callable used when new message instances are created by the next() methods. Defaults to the rfc822.Message class. - A new subclass of UnixMailbox is added, called PortableUnixMailbox. It's identical to UnixMailbox, but uses a more portable test for From_ delimiter lines. With PortableUnixMailbox, any line that starts with "From " is considered a delimiter (this should really check for two newlines before the F, but it doesn't.

* Detlef Lannert <lannert@uni-duesseldorf.de>:Fred Drake2000-09-141-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | mailbox.py (from the CVS tree) doesn't work with qmail Maildirs: Filenames are completed when the directories are scanned, and the directory name is prepended again in the next() method. Another suggestion: Change the print statement in the _test() driver to show two more date characters (probably the length has increased due to the recent Y2K hype ;). Now it shows the complete date, including the seconds -- at least for me. (I've also made the sender field left justified, in case it is ever shorter than the field width).
