[question] How can I add a customize field before send mail?

[tumashu]

Before send mail, UTF-8 char will be encode with base64, which is difficult filted by procmail.

I want to add a field: X-Subject-Pinyin, which can be generate from Subject fields, for example:

Subject:  hello， 你好

generate a field:

X-Subject-Pinyin:  hello nihao

Now I hack the rss2email source to get this feature , Is is possible using a post hook function?

That's what I would do. You'll want a post-processing hook that looks like:

import rss2email.email

def convert_to_pinyin(string): ... return pinyin

def add_subject_pinyin(message, **kwargs): subject = rss2email.email._decode_header(message['Subject']) message['X-Subject-Pinyin'] = convert_to_pinyin(subject)

If that works for you, let me know and I can make rss2email.email._decode_header public (by removing the underscore prefix).

The below hook works well, I suggest it can be included into master, for it is very useful for Chinese user.

+begin_src python

import rss2email.email import pinyin

def remove_non_ascii(string): """remove no ascii char in string""" return "".join([i for i in string if ord(i)<128])

def add_pinyin_header(message, **kwargs): header_subject = rss2email.email._decode_header(message['Subject']) header_from = rss2email.email._decode_header(message['From']) message['X-Pinyin-Subject'] = remove_non_ascii(pinyin.get(header_subject)) message['X-Pinyin-From'] = remove_non_ascii(pinyin.get(header_from)) return message

+end_src

Can you give an example of a subject or from header that doesn't convert to all ASCII?

message['X-Pinyin-From'] = remove_non_ascii(pinyin.get(header_from))

I'd prefer either encoding the Pinyin string (with any non-ASCII characters) using the usual email.header.Header, but procmail has (at least, it had in 2010 1) the same sort of problem with RFC-2047-encoded Pinyin as it had with the original hanzi.

I'm still not wild about the ord() stuff. How about:

message['X-Pinyin-From'] = pinyin.get(header_from).encode( 'ASCII', errors='ignore')

?

I use pinyin to filter email, so chars which is not Chinese and ascii are useless for filter chinese subject and i remove them.
