email-format
"Internet Message Format" meticulously implemented for email construction and validation, as defined in RFC 5322 and other RFCs.
Features
- Extensive RFC 5322 Parser/validator
- If you generate an email using this crate, you are guaranteed that will be a valid RFC 5322 formatted email, or else you will get a ParseError. The only exception that I am currently aware of is that lines can be longer than 998 characters (see issue #3).
Limitations
- Obsolete email formats are not implemented in the parser. Therefore, it is not sufficient for parsing inbound emails if you need to recognize formats that were obsoleted in 2008.
Plans (not yet implemented)
- Support for email headers defined in other RFCs: ** Support for RFC 6854 (updated From and Sender syntax) ** Support for all headers registered at IANA (http://www.iana.org/assignments/message-headers/message-headers.xhtml)
- Support for MIME (RFC 2045, RFC 4021, RFC 2231, RFC 6352)
- Support for streaming of MIME parts from disk.
- More ergonomic function signatures
- Less copying of data
- Implementation of
emailcrate'sSendableEmail, and so it works with thelettrecrate (will be inefficient due to the way SendableEmail is defined).
History
This project was inspired by the earlier email crate, but was reworked from scratch due to a number of significant differences in design, implementation and interface.
