If reportbug generated:
From: =?utf-8?b?VG9tYXMgTWFydGnFoWl1cyA8dG9tYXNAcHVnYS52ZHUubHQ+?=
then this is definitely a bug in reportbug itself. Looking at the
reportbug source, it is not giving email.message sufficient hints about
how to encode the From header correctly when the name includes non-ASCII
characters, which causes exactly this problem:
| lothlorien:~$ python3
| Python 3.5.2+ (default, Nov 22 2016, 01:00:20)
| [GCC 6.2.1 20161119] on linux
| Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
| >>> from email.mime.text import MIMEText
| >>> message = MIMEText('Some test')
| >>> message['From'] = 'TOMAS MARTIŠIUS <tomas@puga.vdu.lt>'
| >>> message['To'] = 'Russ Allbery <eagle@eyrie.org>'
| >>> print(message)
| Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
| MIME-Version: 1.0
| Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
| From: =?utf-8?b?VE9NQVMgTUFSVEnFoElVUyA8dG9tYXNAcHVnYS52ZHUubHQ+?=
| To: Russ Allbery <eagle@eyrie.org>
|
| Some test
There are various ways to fix this. The easiest is probably to use
email.utils.formataddr:
| >>> message = MIMEText('Some test')
| >>> message['From'] = formataddr(('TOMAS MARTIŠIUS', 'tomas@puga.vdu.lt'))
| >>> message['To'] = formataddr(('Russ Allbery', 'eagle@eyrie.org'))
| >>> print(message)
| Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
| MIME-Version: 1.0
| Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
| From: =?utf-8?q?TOMAS_MARTI=C5=A0IUS?= <tomas@puga.vdu.lt>
| To: Russ Allbery <eagle@eyrie.org>
|
| Some test
I will file a bug against reportbug on your behalf.
