TypeError: expected string or buffer

Old script runs, but is not very clear on what it's doing. It did give me something wrong after a run on some Maildir:

 Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "./maildir-deduplicate.py", line 204, in <module>
     main()
   File "./maildir-deduplicate.py", line 200, in main
    duplicates = findDuplicates(mails_by_hash, delete)
   File "./maildir-deduplicate.py", line 107, in findDuplicates
    subject, count = re.subn('\s+', ' ', subject)
   File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/re.py", line 162, in subn
    return _compile(pattern, 0).subn(repl, string, count)
  TypeError: expected string or buffer

Message hashing and decoding has been heavily updated in the last few months. This issue might have been fixed since then. Let's close it.
