If the text part of an email message didn't specify the charset in the
Content-Type header, the text content wouldn't be found. We fix this, by
assuming us-ascii charset in those cases, as specified by RFC6657:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6657
With the previous commit, fixes#1836.
As specified in the issue above, we make
get_email_gateway_message_string_from_address raise an exception if
it doesn't recognise the email gateway address pattern. Then, we make
appropriate adjustments in the codepaths which call this function.
These functions don't really belong in actions.py, so we move them out,
into email_mirror_helpers.py. They can't go directly into
email_mirror.py or we'd get circular imports resulting in ImportError.
Closes#2420
We add rate limiting (max X emails withing Y seconds per realm) to the
email mirror. By creating RateLimitedRealmMirror class, inheriting from
RateLimitedObject, and rate_limit_mirror_by_realm function, following a
mechanism used by rate_limit_user, we're able to have this
implementation mostly rely on the already existing, and proven over
time, rate_limiter.py code. The rules are configurable in settings.py in
RATE_LIMITING_MIRROR_REALM_RULES, analogically to RATE_LIMITING_RULES.
Rate limit verification happens in the MirrorWorker in
queue_processors.py. We don't rate limit missed message emails, as due
to using one time addresses, they're not a spam threat.
test_mirror_worker is adapted to the altered MirrorWorker code and a new
test - test_mirror_worker_rate_limiting is added in test_queue_worker.py
to provide coverage for these changes.
To prepare for changing how the stream name gets encoded into mirror
email addresses while making sure old addresses keep working, we ignore
the stream_name part when receiving emails into the mirror and we only
look at the email_token to identify into which stream to mirror the
email.
Addresses point 2 of #10612. We use a regex to detect if a form
of FWD indicator is present at the beginning of the subject, which
means the message has been forwarded.
remove_quotations argument is added to a couple of functions where
it's necessary.
In filter_footer, the criteria for a line to be a possible beginning
of a footer is changed to line.strip() == "--", instead of
line.strip().startswith("--"), because the former would remove
quotations from plaintext emails. This change makes sense, because
RFC 3676 specifies ""-- " as the separator line between the body
and the signature of a message":
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3676
We remove the 'subject' argument of process_stream_message and make
subject processing happen inside the function, as it's a more
appropriate place than the general process_message function and is
needed to have a good way of disabling removing quotations in forwarded
emails sent into the mirror.
Fixes part 3 of #10612. When sending an email to the email mirror to a
stream address, if "+show-sender" is added in the address, the stream
message will now include "From: <sender>" at the top.
For internal stream messages, most of the time, we have access to
a Stream object. For the few corner cases where we don't, it is a
much cleaner approach to have a separate function that accepts a
stream name than having one multi-option helper that accepts both
names and objects.
If the caller has access to a Stream object, it is wasteful to
query a database for a stream by ID or name. In addition, not
having to go through stream names eliminates various classes of
possible bugs involved with re-fetching the Stream object by name.
Previously, we had some hand-written logic for parsing the subject
line of the email's headers and turning it into a Python string using
each of the valid encodings for an email. That logic was buggy, and
sometimes resulted in a bytes object being passed into the
`send_zulip`, which would eventually throw an exception.
The fix for this is to use the Python standard library make_header
method for handling internationalized email headers.

Fixes part 1 of #10612. We use a regex to remove RE:, FWD: (and similar
variations) from email subjects. Unit test is included, we add
subjects.json in fixtures containing various subjects to try the
stripping on.
When trying to find the email gateway address, use the
`email.util.getaddresses` function to deal with cases
where multiple recipients are included in the email header
or the stream address appears as an angle-addr with a
name given (e.g. if someone added it to their address book).
Added some other headers where the required address may
appear: "Resent" headers are sometimes used for forwarding,
and streams may also be found in CC. There is no way to find
the address if the email was recieved as a BCC.
This library was absolutely essential as part of our Python 2->3
migration process, but all of its calls should be either no-ops or
encode/decode operations.
Note also that the library has been wrong since the incorrect
refactoring in 1f9244e060.
Fixes#10807.
Change the truncation marker from `...` to `\n[message truncated]`
when receiving messages from the API or through e-mail. Also, update
tests to account for the new change.
Fix#10871.
Generally emails are not written with markdown in mind and hence
sometimes render in strange ways. This commit fixes a particular
issue that was causing whitespace before paragraphs to be treated
as code block due to which email content was being rendered in a
box that scrolls in right direction a lot.
Fixes: #7045.
They're rarely useful, usually displayed invisibly in most tools
anyway, and this helps make sure the message makes it into Zulip
rather than being rejected.
Redis and the Redis client know nothing but bytes. When we take a
`bytes` object it returns and pass it down as `subject` here, it
causes an exception deep inside message processing if the realm has
any filters, when `bugdown.subject_links` attempts to search the
subject for the filters, which are of course `str` patterns.
For symmetry, make the conversion to bytes on the storing side
explicit too.
