* Add Gregory K. Johnson's revised version of mailbox.py (funded byAndrew M. Kuchling2006-04-221-51/+1302
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | the 2005 Summer of Code). The revision adds a number of new mailbox classes that support adding and removing messages; these classes also support mailbox locking and default to using email.Message instead of rfc822.Message. The old mailbox classes are largely left alone for backward compatibility. The exception is the Maildir class, which was present in the old module and now inherits from the new classes. The Maildir class's interface is pretty simple, though, so I think it'll be compatible with existing code. (The change to the NEWS file also adds a missing word to a different news item, which unfortunately required rewrapping the line.)

* Clean up some markup cruft. A number of the macros that take noFred Drake2001-11-281-1/+1
| | | | | | | | parameters (like \UNIX) are commonly entered using an empty group to separate the markup from a following inter-word space; this is not needed when the next character is punctuation, or the markup is the last thing in the enclosing group. These cases were marked inconsistently; the empty group is now *only* used when needed.

* Added some additional documentation describing how BabylMailboxBarry Warsaw2001-04-111-4/+12

* Adjustments to the text of the UnixMailbox description. AddedFred Drake2001-02-021-21/+31
| | | | | PortableUnixMailbox as a separate class as well (this also generates the right index entry).
* Document the two changes to the mailbox.py module:Barry Warsaw2001-01-311-9/+39
| | | | | | | | | | | | - All constructors grow an optional argument `factory' which is a callable used when new message instances are created by the next() methods. Defaults to the rfc822.Message class. - A new subclass of UnixMailbox is added, called PortableUnixMailbox. It's identical to UnixMailbox, but uses a more portable test for From_ delimiter lines. With PortableUnixMailbox, any line that starts with "From " is considered a delimiter (this should really check for two newlines before the F, but it doesn't.
