Overview

Package mail implements parsing of mail messages.

For the most part, this package follows the syntax as specified by RFC 5322 and extended by RFC 6532. Notable divergences:

  • Obsolete address formats are not parsed, including addresses with embedded route information.
  • Group addresses are not parsed.
  • The full range of spacing (the CFWS syntax element) is not supported, such as breaking addresses across lines.
  • No unicode normalization is performed.
