Name : perl-Email-MIME
Product : Fedora 32
Version : 1.949
Release : 1.fc32
URL :   https://metacpan.org/release/Email-MIME
Summary : Easy MIME message parsing
Description :
This is an extension of the Email::Simple module, to handle MIME
encoded messages. It takes a message as a string, splits it up
into its constituent parts, and allows you access to various
parts of the message. Headers are decoded from MIME encoding.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This update limits the number of nested MIME parts to 10 (by default), to avoid
a possible memory exhaustion issue with lots of tiny MIME parts.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ChangeLog:

* Sun May 24 2020 Paul Howarth - 1.949-1
- Update to 1.949
- Add $Email::MIME::MAX_DEPTH and refuse to parse deeper than that many
parts; current default: 10
- Fixes to handling of content-type parameters
