MIME-tools-5.518

Changes for version 5.518 - 2026-08-26

  • VERSION 5.518 RELEASED
  • Add tests for encoded "boundary=XXX" parameters and set the ambiguous-parse flag if any are found. Patch courtesy of Dominik Csapak <d.csapak@proxmox.com>
    • MIME::tools chooses to decode encoded boundary parameters. MUA behaviors differ; Claws-Mail decodes them while Thunderbird does not.
  • Don't ignore invalid whitespace after "boundary=XXX" parameter. Patch courtesy of Dominik Csapak <d.csapak@proxmox.com>
  • Ignore comments between tokens. A header parameter can be written foo(comment)=bar and it's the same as foo=bar. Patch courtesy of Dominik Csapak <d.csapak@proxmox.com>
