Barry Warsaw 95400a28e4 Updated the documentation in several respects:
- This module, despite its name, now should conform to RFC 2822, the
  update to RFC 822.

- This module doesn't just represent "email headers", but entire email
  messages.

- Added documentation for other useful public functions such as
  quote(), unquote(), praseaddr(), and dump_address_pair().
