[Matej Cepl]

Hi,

is there any example of use of mailbox.py. I would be especially
interested if anybody made a objects which would be able to .delete()
..append() etc. individual messages.

Thanks,

Matej

mailbox.py unfortunately only reads mailboxes (although it does handle
most formats, including Maildir, which is nice).

offlineimap (gopher://gopher.quux.org/1/devel/offlineimap) [1] uses
Maildir for storing messages, so you may want to look at it.

the 21st century
