In Python 2.6 PLAIN authentication works, in Python 3.1 not.
Lib/test/test_imaplib.py does not test IMAP4.authenticate() or
IMAP4.login_cram_md5() functions, only IMAP4.login().
I would still like to go back to imaplib._Authenticator.encode() function. The
function is below.
# inp = authobject(response)
def encode(self, inp):
oup = ''
while inp:
if len(inp) > 48:
t = inp[:48]
inp = inp[48:]
else:
t = inp
inp = ''
e = binascii.b2a_base64(t)
if e:
oup = oup + e[:-1]
return oup
binascii.b2a_base64() takes bytes, so inp must therefore be bytes, and returns
bytes (Python 3). Then str + bytes (out + e[:-1]) fails.
The fix would then be changing
oup = oup + e[:-1]
to
oup = oup + e[:-1].decode()
