Sending news by email no longer works ...

Hi there,
so far I've been successfully emailing all sorts of of news & comics regularly to my kindle ... perfect!

Since Calibre 5.12 this does not seem to work any longer.

The error I get is as follows:

Code:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "calibre/gui2/email.py", line 45, in run
  File "calibre/gui2/email.py", line 129, in sendmail
  File "calibre/utils/smtp.py", line 191, in sendmail
  File "smtplib.py", line 892, in sendmail
smtplib.SMTPDataError: (501, b'Syntax error - line too long')

First I thought the generated file was to big. So I reduced the recipe to to fetch only one day per comic (900k resulting file). - But it still does not work. My Emailaccount also works as before. - Were there any changes with 5.12 that require me to adapt my settings?

Thanks & Greetz

Hegi.

There is a bug in v5.12 causing this issue.

Either wait for v5.13 or go back to v5.11

I've gone back to 5.11
Cheers,
