Trying to use this on python3 and I'm getting this?
feedparser.py", line 1353
ur'''(([a-zA-Z0-9_-.+]+)@(([[0-9]{1,3}.[0-9]{1,3}.[0-9]{1,3}.)|(([a-zA-Z0-9-]+.)+))([a-zA-Z]{2,4}|[0-9]{1,3})(]?))(?subject=\S+)?''',
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

the error is pointing to the last set of ''' before the comma.

I have played with this for a few hours, spliting up the line turing it into a string, etc, etc and no matter what it doesn't like that line.

Thanks

Have you run the code through 2to3 yet? The 'u' in front of the quotes suggests that this hasn't been done yet.

2to3 -w feedparser.py

Also, please upgrade to feedparser 5.2.0. That line is no longer on line 1353. =)

yes I did that and now it works.
Of course it would have helped if I would have done that before I spent a
few hours correcting other issues by hand.

Thanks

I understand the frustration! feedparser development in the near-term is actually going to include making the code run in both Python 2 and Python 3 without running 2to3, so I expect that in a future release this will no longer be an issue.
