Guido van Rossum 8b3febef2f Copying the email package back, despite its failings. 2007-08-30 01:15:14 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 6398b7a351 Remove the email package for now.
Once Barry and the email-sig have a working new version
we'll add it back.
If it doesn't make the 3.0a deadline (release August 31), too bad.

Barry Warsaw bb11386730 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.

Barry Warsaw 190390b026 The email package's tests live much better in a subpackage
(i.e. email.test), so move the guts of them here from Lib/test.  The
latter directory will retain stubs to run the email.test tests using
Python's standard regression test.

test_email_torture.py is a torture tester which will not run under
Python's test suite because I don't want to commit megs of data to
that project (it will fail cleanly there).  When run under the mimelib
project it'll stress test the package with megs of message samples
collected from various locations in the wild.
