Is there a JavaMail analog?

[Joshua]

Ive playedw ith the standard pop3 and imap and nntp and smtp modules
but am unconvinced -- I would like to find a more sophisticated email
handling API like JavaMail (from which I hope to convert). Can anyone
recommend anything? (Ive gone through some o fhte stuff from the
Vaults of Parnussus and some of the stuff in the PyPI but am as of yet
unable to find something worthwhile.

Anyhelp is greatlya ppreciated, thanks in advance,

Joshua
