-email -- a mail and MIME handling package
-Copyright (C) 2001-2006 Python Software Foundation
-
-
-Introduction
-
- The email package is a library for managing email messages, including MIME
- and other RFC 2822-based message documents. It is intended to replace
- most of the functionality in several older standard modules such as
- rfc822, mimetools, multifile, mimify, and MIMEWriter, and other
- non-standard packages such as mimecntl. It is compliant with most of the
- email related RFCs such as 2045-2047 (the MIME RFCs) and 2231.
-
- This version is identical to the package available in Python 2.5. It is
- being made available as a standalone distutils package for use in older
- Python releases. A minimum of Python 2.3 is required. Because the email
- package is part of Python, it is covered by the PSF license for Python, as
- described in the LICENSE.txt file.
-
-
-Testing
-
- To test the email package, run the standard unit test suite from the
- directory that you unpacked the source in (i.e. the directory containing
- the setup.py file and this README file):
-
- % python testall.py
-
- You should see a couple of lines of dots followed by the number of tests
- ran and the time the tests took. The test should end with an "OK". If
- so, you're good to go. Note that the exact number of tests depends on
- such things as whether you have the Japanese codecs installed or not.
-
-
-Documentation and Examples
-
- The documentation, including the major changes in the package over time,
- can be found in the docs directory:
-
- docs/index.html
-
- If you're looking for examples, you might want to check out some
- of the tests. There are a few examples in the documentation as
- well.
-
-
-Installing
-
- To install simply execute the following at your shell prompt:
-
- % python setup.py install
-
