0.9.9 drops carriage returns

[juancabrio]

Hi,

I cat a text file into apprise as the body of an email. This works great with 0.9.8 and below. When I use 0.9.9 the returns in my text file all get stripped and the email body is one long line. Looking for a way forward with 0.9.9 but happy to stay with 0.9.8 if needed.

Cheers

Juan

Interesting, so you're just using the apprise CLI? Or are you using the Apprise API?

[juancabrio]

The CLI. Like this.
cat file | /usr/local/bin/apprise -t "test email" mailto://bla@bla
Happy to be corrected if this is not the preferred method.
Cheers

No, what you're doing is great. I'll try to have a look at this over the weekend. Something is off based on what you're describing. I don't recall touching email in the last release. 🤔

I'll keep you posted. In the meantime (doubtfully related; but just in case) what mail service are you using? Is it a private or public one (like Hotmail or Gmail)?

[juancabrio]

I've tried both gmail and outlook with the same result.
I can easily test back and forth using pip to install the different versions to reproduce.
Let me know if you want me to dump a requirements.txt form virtual env. If that helps.

Actually, my previous comment isn't entirely accurate. I relay through a local SMTP server.

I think I see where i broke the code in the last release. It was to accommodate a Telegram issue. It looks like i broke the very feature you're inquiring about here. 🫣

Shouldn't be too much of an issue to fix. Thank you for reporting this

[caronc]

If you access the main branch of apprise, the issue should be gone now for you. There was also a bad unit test i corrected so that this won't break again in future versions.
