+- email 4.0 package now integrated. This is largely the same as the email 3.0
+ package that was included in Python 2.3, except that PEP 8 module names are
+ now used (e.g. mail.message instead of email.Message). The MIME classes
+ have been moved to a subpackage (e.g. email.mime.text instead of
+ email.MIMEText). The old names are still supported for now. Several
+ deprecated Message methods have been removed and lots of bugs have been
+ fixed. More details can be found in the email package documentation.
