Big email 3.0 API changes, with updated unit tests and documentation.
Briefly (from the NEWS file):

- Updates for the email package:
+ All deprecated APIs that in email 2.x issued warnings have been removed:
_encoder argument to the MIMEText constructor, Message.add_payload(),
Utils.dump_address_pair(), Utils.decode(), Utils.encode()
+ New deprecations: Generator.__call__(), Message.get_type(),
Message.get_main_type(), Message.get_subtype(), the 'strict' argument to
the Parser constructor. These will be removed in email 3.1.
+ Support for Python earlier than 2.3 has been removed (see PEP 291).
+ All defect classes have been renamed to end in 'Defect'.
+ Some FeedParser fixes; also a MultipartInvariantViolationDefect will be
added to messages that claim to be multipart but really aren't.
+ Updates to documentation.

Update to Python 2.3, getting rid of backward compatiblity crud. We don't
need the _compat21 or _compat22 modules either.

to make public, but that others might still find useful.

Complete a merge of the mimelib project and the Python cvs codebases

Sun, 19 May 2002 23:44:19 +0000

Complete a merge of the mimelib project and the Python cvs codebases
for the email package. The former is now just a shell project that
has some extra files for packaging for independent use (e.g. setup.py
and README).

Added a compatibility layer so that the same API can be used in Python
2.1 and 2.2/2.3 with the major differences shuffled off into helper
modules (_compat21.py and _compat22.py).

Also bumped the package version number to 2.0.3 for some fixes to be
checked in momentarily.

Sync'ing with standalone email package 2.0.1. This adds support for
non-us-ascii character sets in headers and bodies. Some API changes
(with DeprecationWarnings for the old APIs). Better RFC-compliant
implementations of base64 and quoted-printable.

Updated test cases. Documentation updates to follow (after I finish
writing them ;).

Backporting of email 2.4 from Python 2.3. Many newly added modules,
some updated modules, updated documentation, and updated tests. Note
that Lib/test/regrtest.py added test_email_codecs to the expected
skips for all platforms. Also note that test_email_codecs.py differs
slightly from its Python 2.3 counterpart due to the difference in
package location for TestSkipped.

Mon, 15 Oct 2001 04:38:22 +0000

typed_subpart_iterator(): When getting the main type use 'text' as the
failobj, and when getting the subtype use 'plain' as the failobj.
text/plain is supposed to be the default if the message contains no
Content-Type: header.

Updated docstrings. Also,

typed_subpart_iterator(): Arguments major renamed to maintype and
minor renamed to subtype for consistency with the rest of the
package.

Sun, 23 Sep 2001 03:17:28 +0000

The email package version 1.0, prototyped as mimelib
. There /are/ API differences between
mimelib and email, but most of the implementations are shared (except
where cool Py2.2 stuff like generators are used).
