PortableUnixMailbox as a separate class as well (this also generates
the right index entry).

Adds support for raw packets (AF_PACKET) under Linux.  I haven't
tested this code thoroughly; it compiles and the basic calls all work
without crashing.  Not sure what to actually do with raw sockets though.

Not sure what other platforms this might be useful for.

the standard library does not use the SOCKET module any more, and it is
not defined for all platforms (Windows, in particular).

Move some index entries next to what they are referring to for better
"targetting".

Fix httplib to comply with the new ssl-socket interface.

field when in decimal mode.  There are still some oddities about
typing into these fields, but it should be much less annoying.  The
real solution is to ditch the update-while-typing "feature".

Fix value for special NOOPT entry in symtable.  Initialze to 0 instead

internal states.  Put the old .seed() (which could only get at about
the square root of the # of possibilities) under the new name .whseed(),
for bit-level compatibility with older versions.  This occurred to me
while reviewing effbot's book (he found himself stumbling over .seed()
more than once there ...).

I'm now checking it in.  I need to write some documentation for it,
but I don't have time right now.  Still, I wanted to get this into
2.1a2.

# Overview:
#
# This file implements the minimal SMTP protocol as defined in RFC 821.  It
# has a hierarchy of classes which implement the backend functionality for the
# smtpd.  A number of classes are provided:
#
#   SMTPServer - the base class for the backend.  Raises an UnimplementedError
#   if you try to use it.
#
#   DebuggingServer - simply prints each message it receives on stdout.
#
#   PureProxy - Proxies all messages to a real smtpd which does final
#   delivery.  One known problem with this class is that it doesn't handle
#   SMTP errors from the backend server at all.  This should be fixed
#   (contributions are welcome!).
#
#   MailmanProxy - An experimental hack to work with GNU Mailman
#   <www.list.org>.  Using this server as your real incoming smtpd, your
#   mailhost will automatically recognize and accept mail destined to Mailman
#   lists when those lists are created.  Every message not destined for a list
#   gets forwarded to a real backend smtpd, as with PureProxy.  Again, errors
#   are not handled correctly yet.

- 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.
