[GitHub] [incubator-ponymail-foal] sebbASF opened a new issue #164: import-mbox not guaranteed compatible with archiver when parsing emails
sebbASF opened a new issue #164:
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-ponymail-foal/issues/164
The archiver uses the email module which offers the choice of several policies.
However import-mbox relies on the mailbox module; AFAICT this does not offer any choice of policy.
It may even default to compat32 which is buggy.
It seems to me that the import-mbox script should not do its own parsing unless it can guarantee to behave the same as the archiver.
It would be better if the importer were only responsible for unpacking messages from storage before passing them to the archiver for analysis.

I've found that import-mbox currently behaves differently from archiver in at least one aspect:
An address of the form:
To: user@domain.invalid (Test User)
is rendered by archiver.py as
"to": "user@domain.test"
whereas import-mbox generates
"to": "user@domain.test (Test User)"
This is because archiver defaults to policy=default, whereas mailbox uses the original policy of email which is compat32.
There may be other discrepancies.
