Julien ÉLIE <jul...@trigofacile.com> added the comment: Yes, you're right. I meant to say that AUTHINFO is not expecting a UTF-8-encoded string.
For instance: AUTHINFO USER Éric is valid and should not always be transformed by nntplib to: AUTHINFO USER Éric News servers do a byte-string comparison (as specified in RFC 4643). So if « Éric » is the expected user name, then it is this very name that is expected! ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10284> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
