DESCRIPTION
The module provides two classes: Mailbox, a file-like object
which allows you to iterate through the contents of a mailbox,
and Email, an object which holds the individual emails returned by
Mailbox. Mailbox inherits from Mailbox_base, but usually you don't
need to even know about this class. Mailbox_base implements the
file like mailbox reading part of the class, and the Email object
creation. Use the Mailbox class in your code, which will always
maintain the same API for backwards compatibility.
This module has been written with simplicity in mind, and low memory
consumption. Unless you do something bad, I estimate maximum memory
consumption as twice the memory required by the largest email of
the opened mailbox. But I'm guessing, maybe it is lower, like one
time your biggest email.
