New submission from Jason R. Coombs:
As reported in https://bitbucket.org/dholth/wheel/issue/104, the email.parser
no longer accepts Unicode content as it did in 3.3. I searched the What's New
and module documentation, but found no indication that this behavior is no
longer supported, so it appears to be a regression. If it's an intentional
change, the behavior should be documented in one of the aforementioned
documents.
Consider this simple test case:
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import email.parser
meta = """
Header: ☃
"""
email.parser.Parser().parsestr(meta)
Run that on Python 3.3.3 or Python 2 and it executes silently. Run it on Python
3.4.0b3 and it produces this traceback:
