+
+A subclass of \class{MIMEBase}, the \class{MIMEAudio} class is used to
+create MIME message objects of major type \mimetype{audio}.
+\var{_audiodata} is a string containing the raw image data. If this
+data can be decoded by the standard Python module \refmodule{sndhdr},
+then the subtype will be automatically included in the
+\mailheader{Content-Type} header. Otherwise you can explicitly specify the
+audio subtype via the \var{_subtype} parameter. If the minor type could
+not be guessed and \var{_subtype} was not given, then \exception{TypeError}
+is raised.
+
+Optional \var{_encoder} is a callable (i.e. function) which will
+perform the actual encoding of the audio data for transport. This
+callable takes one argument, which is the \class{MIMEAudio} instance.
+It should use \method{get_payload()} and \method{set_payload()} to
+change the payload to encoded form. It should also add any
+\mailheader{Content-Transfer-Encoding} or other headers to the message
+object as necessary. The default encoding is \emph{Base64}. See the
+\refmodule{email.Encoders} module for a list of the built-in encoders.
+
+\var{_params} are passed straight through to the \class{MIMEBase}
+constructor.
