+# Imports
+
+from types import StringType
+import regex
+import socket
+import string
+
+# Exception raised when an error or invalid response is received:
+error_proto = 'pop3.error_proto'	 # response does not begin with +
+
+# Standard Port
+POP3_PORT = 110
+
+# Line terminators (we always output CRLF, but accept any of CRLF, CR, LF)
+CRLF = '\r\n'
+
+# This library supports both the minimal and optional command sets:
+# Arguments can be strings or integers (where appropriate)
+# (e.g.: retr(1) and retr('1') both work equally well.
+#
+# Minimal Command Set:
+#	 USER name				user(name)
+#	 PASS string				pass_(string)
+#	 STAT					stat()
+#	 LIST [msg]				list(msg = None)
+#	 RETR msg				retr(msg)
+#	 DELE msg				dele(msg)
+#	 NOOP					noop()
+#	 RSET					rset()
+#	 QUIT					quit()
+#
+# Optional Commands (some servers support these)
+#	 APOP name digest			apop(name, digest)
+#	 TOP msg n				top(msg, n)
+#	 UIDL [msg]				uidl(msg = None)
+#
