Category: Documentation Group: Python 2.2 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Barry Warsaw (bwarsaw) Assigned to: Fred L. Drake, Jr. (fdrake) Summary: Deprecate modules

Initial Comment: The following modules should be marked as deprecated because the new email package provides all the functionality (using different APIs perhaps, and it steals some implementation from rfc822.py, but still...)

rfc822.py mimetools.py MIMEWriter.py

Technically mimify.py should be deprecated too, however the email package doesn't provide the run-as-script functionality. That would be easy to provide as a Tools/script, so I still think it should be deprecated.
