#5915 closed defect (bug) (wontfix)

Same problem as in #252: apop broken if zero occurs in banner in 2.3.3 class-pop3.php

Description

While extracting the banner (function parse_banner) in preparation for apop, the empty method is called on $digit which when zero returns false and hence doesn't get put into the resultant $banner.

Example parse_banner reply with <14649.123343777@…> but the string was "+OK ready <14649.1203343777@…>"
or another example
"+OK ready <14649.1203343777@…>" and $pop3->parse_banner give back <14419.12334323@…>

then a md5($AuthString) must fail, because the 0 is significant by apop.

I put a workaround at http://www.babsi.de/silentapop/, that does it for me, but this touch also wp-main.php

Moving all blog-by-email bugs to a seperate component and out of 2.9.

This will all be address by a new canonical blog-by-email plugin which is under development and will hopefully be available by the time 2.9 is released.

Did this happen?

Not before 2.9 I guess, but codebykat did a plugin for her OPW internship: https://github.com/codebykat/wp-post-by-email

If you want to figure out if/how we can move that out of core, that could be cool.

We can take a similar approach to the decommissioning of links. Leave the functionality and UI, hide UI if it isn't being used.

  • Keywords close added

This is a pretty old ticket, but looking at the class, it evidently still exists as a possible issue?

This particular class is one of those deeply buried, rarely touched kind of things. Maybe it's just me, but I can't even find where it is actually used anymore.

Is this still a relevant ticket? Should it be closed as wontfix?

#11 @cbutlerjr

  • Resolution set to wontfix
  • Status changed from accepted to closed

Assuming a focus on removing Post by Email from core (#22942), recommending this be closed.
