+- 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.
