QuotedPrintable

Base64

Implementations

Choose the most efficient Encoding for input

Look into input and decide what encoding format could best be used to represent it.

If the SMTP server supports the SMTPUTF8 extension supports_utf8 may me set to true, otherwise false is the safest option.

Possible return values based on supports_utf8

7bit
8bit

base64
Examples
// Ascii
{
    let input = "Hello, World!";
    assert_eq!(Encoding::choose(input, false), Encoding::SevenBit);
    assert_eq!(Encoding::choose(input, true), Encoding::SevenBit);
}

// Mostly ascii + utf-8
{
    let input = "Hello, World! 📬";
    assert_eq!(Encoding::choose(input, false), Encoding::QuotedPrintable);
    assert_eq!(Encoding::choose(input, true), Encoding::EightBit);
}

// Mostly utf-8
{
    let input = "Hello! 📬📬📬📬📬📬📬📬📬📬";
    assert_eq!(Encoding::choose(input, false), Encoding::Base64);
    assert_eq!(Encoding::choose(input, true), Encoding::EightBit);
}

// Non utf-8 bytes
{
    let input = &[255, 35, 123, 190];
    assert_eq!(Encoding::choose(input, false), Encoding::Base64);
    assert_eq!(Encoding::choose(input, true), Encoding::Base64);
}
