<hr class="docutils" />
<p>This module is part of the legacy (<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Compat32</span></code>) email API.  In the current API
encoding and decoding of headers is handled transparently by the
dictionary-like API of the <a class="reference internal" href="email.message.html#email.message.EmailMessage" title="email.message.EmailMessage"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">EmailMessage</span></code></a> class.  In
addition to uses in legacy code, this module can be useful in applications that
need to completely control the character sets used when encoding headers.</p>
<p>The remaining text in this section is the original documentation of the module.</p>
<p><span class="target" id="index-0"></span><a class="rfc reference external" href="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2822.html"><strong>RFC 2822</strong></a> is the base standard that describes the format of email messages.
It derives from the older <span class="target" id="index-1"></span><a class="rfc reference external" href="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc822.html"><strong>RFC 822</strong></a> standard which came into widespread use at
a time when most email was composed of ASCII characters only.  <span class="target" id="index-2"></span><a class="rfc reference external" href="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2822.html"><strong>RFC 2822</strong></a> is a
specification written assuming email contains only 7-bit ASCII characters.</p>
<p>Of course, as email has been deployed worldwide, it has become
internationalized, such that language specific character sets can now be used in
email messages.  The base standard still requires email messages to be
transferred using only 7-bit ASCII characters, so a slew of RFCs have been
written describing how to encode email containing non-ASCII characters into
<span class="target" id="index-3"></span><a class="rfc reference external" href="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2822.html"><strong>RFC 2822</strong></a>-compliant format. These RFCs include <span class="target" id="index-4"></span><a class="rfc reference external" href="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2045.html"><strong>RFC 2045</strong></a>, <span class="target" id="index-5"></span><a class="rfc reference external" href="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2046.html"><strong>RFC 2046</strong></a>,
<span class="target" id="index-6"></span><a class="rfc reference external" href="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2047.html"><strong>RFC 2047</strong></a>, and <span class="target" id="index-7"></span><a class="rfc reference external" href="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2231.html"><strong>RFC 2231</strong></a>. The <a class="reference internal" href="email.html#module-email" title="email: Package supporting the parsing, manipulating, and generating email messages."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">email</span></code></a> package supports these standards
in its <a class="reference internal" href="#module-email.header" title="email.header: Representing non-ASCII headers"><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">email.header</span></code></a> and <a class="reference internal" href="email.charset.html#module-email.charset" title="email.charset: Character Sets"><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">email.charset</span></code></a> modules.</p>
<p>If you want to include non-ASCII characters in your email headers, say in the
<em class="mailheader">Subject</em> or <em class="mailheader">To</em> fields, you should use the
<a class="reference internal" href="#email.header.Header" title="email.header.Header"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Header</span></code></a> class and assign the field in the <a class="reference internal" href="email.compat32-message.html#email.message.Message" title="email.message.Message"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Message</span></code></a>
object to an instance of <a class="reference internal" href="#email.header.Header" title="email.header.Header"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Header</span></code></a> instead of using a string for the header
value.  Import the <a class="reference internal" href="#email.header.Header" title="email.header.Header"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Header</span></code></a> class from the <a class="reference internal" href="#module-email.header" title="email.header: Representing non-ASCII headers"><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">email.header</span></code></a> module.
For example:</p>
<div class="highlight-python3 notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="gp">&gt;&gt;&gt; </span><span class="kn">from</span> <span class="nn">email.message</span> <span class="kn">import</span> <span class="n">Message</span>
<span class="gp">&gt;&gt;&gt; </span><span class="kn">from</span> <span class="nn">email.header</span> <span class="kn">import</span> <span class="n">Header</span>
<span class="gp">&gt;&gt;&gt; </span><span class="n">msg</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="n">Message</span><span class="p">()</span>
<span class="gp">&gt;&gt;&gt; </span><span class="n">h</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="n">Header</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s1">&#39;p</span><span class="se">\xf6</span><span class="s1">stal&#39;</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="s1">&#39;iso-8859-1&#39;</span><span class="p">)</span>
<span class="gp">&gt;&gt;&gt; </span><span class="n">msg</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s1">&#39;Subject&#39;</span><span class="p">]</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="n">h</span>
<span class="gp">&gt;&gt;&gt; </span><span class="n">msg</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">as_string</span><span class="p">()</span>
<span class="go">&#39;Subject: =?iso-8859-1?q?p=F6stal?=\n\n&#39;</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Notice here how we wanted the <em class="mailheader">Subject</em> field to contain a non-ASCII
character?  We did this by creating a <a class="reference internal" href="#email.header.Header" title="email.header.Header"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Header</span></code></a> instance and passing in
the character set that the byte string was encoded in.  When the subsequent
<a class="reference internal" href="email.compat32-message.html#email.message.Message" title="email.message.Message"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Message</span></code></a> instance was flattened, the <em class="mailheader">Subject</em>
field was properly <span class="target" id="index-8"></span><a class="rfc reference external" href="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2047.html"><strong>RFC 2047</strong></a> encoded.  MIME-aware mail readers would show this
header using the embedded ISO-8859-1 character.</p>
<p>Here is the <a class="reference internal" href="#email.header.Header" title="email.header.Header"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Header</span></code></a> class description:</p>
<dl class="class">

<dd><p>Create a MIME-compliant header that can contain strings in different character
sets.</p>
<p>Optional <em>s</em> is the initial header value.  If <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">None</span></code> (the default), the
initial header value is not set.  You can later append to the header with
<a class="reference internal" href="#email.header.Header.append" title="email.header.Header.append"><code class="xref py py-meth docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">append()</span></code></a> method calls.  <em>s</em> may be an instance of <a class="reference internal" href="stdtypes.html#bytes" title="bytes"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">bytes</span></code></a> or
<a class="reference internal" href="stdtypes.html#str" title="str"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">str</span></code></a>, but see the <a class="reference internal" href="#email.header.Header.append" title="email.header.Header.append"><code class="xref py py-meth docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">append()</span></code></a> documentation for semantics.</p>
<p>Optional <em>charset</em> serves two purposes: it has the same meaning as the <em>charset</em>
argument to the <a class="reference internal" href="#email.header.Header.append" title="email.header.Header.append"><code class="xref py py-meth docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">append()</span></code></a> method.  It also sets the default character set
for all subsequent <a class="reference internal" href="#email.header.Header.append" title="email.header.Header.append"><code class="xref py py-meth docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">append()</span></code></a> calls that omit the <em>charset</em> argument.  If
<em>charset</em> is not provided in the constructor (the default), the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">us-ascii</span></code>
character set is used both as <em>s</em>’s initial charset and as the default for
subsequent <a class="reference internal" href="#email.header.Header.append" title="email.header.Header.append"><code class="xref py py-meth docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">append()</span></code></a> calls.</p>
<p>The maximum line length can be specified explicitly via <em>maxlinelen</em>.  For
splitting the first line to a shorter value (to account for the field header
which isn’t included in <em>s</em>, e.g. <em class="mailheader">Subject</em>) pass in the name of the
field in <em>header_name</em>.  The default <em>maxlinelen</em> is 76, and the default value
for <em>header_name</em> is <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">None</span></code>, meaning it is not taken into account for the
first line of a long, split header.</p>
<p>Optional <em>continuation_ws</em> must be <span class="target" id="index-9"></span><a class="rfc reference external" href="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2822.html"><strong>RFC 2822</strong></a>-compliant folding
whitespace, and is usually either a space or a hard tab character.  This
character will be prepended to continuation lines.  <em>continuation_ws</em>
defaults to a single space character.</p>
<p>Optional <em>errors</em> is passed straight through to the <a class="reference internal" href="#email.header.Header.append" title="email.header.Header.append"><code class="xref py py-meth docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">append()</span></code></a> method.</p>

instance (see <a class="reference internal" href="email.charset.html#module-email.charset" title="email.charset: Character Sets"><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">email.charset</span></code></a>) or the name of a character set, which
will be converted to a <a class="reference internal" href="email.charset.html#email.charset.Charset" title="email.charset.Charset"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Charset</span></code></a> instance.  A value
of <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">None</span></code> (the default) means that the <em>charset</em> given in the constructor
is used.</p>
<p><em>s</em> may be an instance of <a class="reference internal" href="stdtypes.html#bytes" title="bytes"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">bytes</span></code></a> or <a class="reference internal" href="stdtypes.html#str" title="str"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">str</span></code></a>.  If it is an
instance of <a class="reference internal" href="stdtypes.html#bytes" title="bytes"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">bytes</span></code></a>, then <em>charset</em> is the encoding of that byte
string, and a <a class="reference internal" href="exceptions.html#UnicodeError" title="UnicodeError"><code class="xref py py-exc docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">UnicodeError</span></code></a> will be raised if the string cannot be

<p>If <em>s</em> is an instance of <a class="reference internal" href="stdtypes.html#str" title="str"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">str</span></code></a>, then <em>charset</em> is a hint specifying
the character set of the characters in the string.</p>
<p>In either case, when producing an <span class="target" id="index-10"></span><a class="rfc reference external" href="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2822.html"><strong>RFC 2822</strong></a>-compliant header using
<span class="target" id="index-11"></span><a class="rfc reference external" href="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2047.html"><strong>RFC 2047</strong></a> rules, the string will be encoded using the output codec of
the charset.  If the string cannot be encoded using the output codec, a
UnicodeError will be raised.</p>
<p>Optional <em>errors</em> is passed as the errors argument to the decode call
if <em>s</em> is a byte string.</p>

<p>Optional <em>splitchars</em> is a string containing characters which should be

wrapping.  This is in very rough support of <span class="target" id="index-12"></span><a class="rfc reference external" href="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2822.html"><strong>RFC 2822</strong></a>’s ‘higher level

which they appear in the string.  Space and tab may be included in the
string to indicate whether preference should be given to one over the

being split.  Splitchars does not affect <span class="target" id="index-13"></span><a class="rfc reference external" href="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2047.html"><strong>RFC 2047</strong></a> encoded lines.</p>
<p><em>maxlinelen</em>, if given, overrides the instance’s value for the maximum
line length.</p>
<p><em>linesep</em> specifies the characters used to separate the lines of the
folded header.  It defaults to the most useful value for Python
application code (<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">\n</span></code>), but <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">\r\n</span></code> can be specified in order
