I stumbled upon the following behaviour of Pigeonhole, which I consider
to be problematic. A user deployed a Sieve script similar to the following
snippet
if not anyof (address :is ["from","cc"] ["...", ..., "...@...
GARBAGE", ...] {
fileinto "inbox.Trash";
stop;
}
Note the extra line break before GARBAGE. This script is obviously broken,
but gets accepted by sievec and only fails later, at runtime with
line X: error: found stray carriage-return (CR) character in quoted
string started at line X.
So, the question is whether line breaks in strings are allowed in general
and the runtime error is unavoidable, or should sievec return an error?
https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3028.txt first hit of quoted-string
quoted-string = DQUOTE *CHAR DQUOTE
;; in general, \ CHAR inside a string maps to CHAR
;; so \" maps to " and \\ maps to \
;; note that newlines and other characters are all allowed
;; strings
So, it's correct. But the address should reject the CR. I guess, Pigeonhole triggers the error for sanity purpose?
