Barry A. Warsaw <ba...@python.org> added the comment:
I still think the only way to read the documentation for parseaddr('a@b@c') is
to return ('', '') - a tuple of empty strings.
The documentations says:
"Returns a tuple of that information, unless the parse fails, in which case a
2-tuple of ('', '') is returned."
Of course, it doesn't define exactly what a "failing parse" is, but I would
claim that a non-RFC compliant address should fail to parse, at least for the
parseaddr() interface.
I'm not concerned about inconsistencies between message_from_string() and
parseaddr(). They are difference APIs.
I'll follow up on the PR, but does anybody disagree with that reasoning?
