A number of people have emailed me recently to report that Hep 0.3.3 breaks
after they upgrade Twisted to a version higher than (approximately) 1.0.2.
My response up to this point has been “downgrade to Twisted 1.0.2″ (and these
users have been kind enough to do so without complaining), but I finally
took the time to figure out exactly what broke, and fix it. So now you
can run Hep 0.3.3 with the latest version of Twisted – just download
and copy it over the pop3.py in your hep/servers/ directory.
(Thanks to Luc Stepniewski for the
email that nudged me over the edge towards fixing the problem, and for
testing the patch).
