New submission from Tres Seaver <tsea...@agendaless.com>: Import of the multifile module emits a DeprecationWarning, but the warning is either incomplete:
- The documentation[1] states that the 'email' module is to be preferred, but doesn't describe what APIs should be used from that module. - In fact, the 'email' module doesn't appear to provide an equivalent API to the 'multifile' module. or perhaps inappropriate, as not all handling of 'multipart' MIME is email related (e.g., processing HTTP form POSTs which include file uploads). At a minimum, the docs for 'multifile' should include examples showing the "preferred" way to implement its own native examples using the'email' module's APIs.
