email.errors.HeaderParseError

exception email.errors.HeaderParseError

Raised under some error conditions when parsing the RFC 2822 headers of a message, this class is derived from MessageParseError. It can be raised from the Parser.parse or Parser.parsestr methods.

Situations where it can be raised include finding an envelope header after the first RFC 2822 header of the message, finding a continuation line before the first RFC 2822 header is found, or finding a line in the headers which is neither a header or a continuation line.
