a7c9ac6544 There is no IMAP class in the imaplib module; the class is IMAP4.
There is no imap module; refer to imaplib instead, since it exists.
Move the "See Also:" section in front of the sub-sections, for
consistency with other portions of the library reference.

This closes the library reference portion of SF bug #420216.

in dict' after has_key(), with a \versionadded{2.2} note.

0dbb4fba4c Implement, test and document "key in dict" and "key not in dict".
I know some people don't like this -- if it's really controversial,
I'll take it out again.  (If it's only Alex Martelli who doesn't like
it, that doesn't count as "real controversial" though. :-)

That's why this is a separate checkin from the iterators stuff I'm
about to check in next.

1aec3a16f3 Add versioning notes: many of the signatures changed to allow the time
used to be omitted (meaning use the current time) as of Python 2.1.
Users who need cross-version portability need to know things like this.

bc524c4e9f Cut-&-paste-o noted by Wolfgang Teschner: decompressobj() returns
*DE*compression objects, not compression objects!

895aa9da4c Suggestion from Keith Briggs: refer to RE objects consistently instead of
introducing a new term ("regex") without defining it.

293f77af6f Add note about the version in which GetoptError was added -- this can
bite people interested in 1.5.2 compatibility.

basic authentication is needed.

Added documentation for FancyURLopener.prompt_user_passwd(), explaining
that subclasses should provide more appropriate behavior for the hosting
environment.

Update the descriptions to reflect further changes from discussions on
the pyunit-interest list.

Added documentation for the defaultTestLoader object and the
TestLoader methods.

Added the assert*() names for the TestCase helper methods.

source.
