d8eeeae4a6 Fix reference to the Fetchmail FAQ:
- URL was missing an "m"
- markup for tilde was wrong
- URL was marked as the title
- actual title was omitted

"make webcheck" didn't catch this; not sure why.

Removed some spurious end-of-line whitespace.

fcc31b44d2 Split the long email package examples into separate files and use
\verbatiminput instead of the verbatim environment -- this does the "right
thing" regarding page breaks in long examples for the typeset formats, and
has nice benefits for the HTML version as well.

02669a35bc Tweak description of PortableUnixMailbox: "From " lines are actually
quoted (or mangled) *at* delivery-time, not "well before" it.  (At least
that's how Exim and qmail work.)

c1ddc505d9 Minor revision to the "\\" patch, including updating the docs a little to
accomodate the fact that they are more general now that they are for the
os.path module and not just posixpath.

This and the previous patch should be combined and applied to the 2.2-maint
branch.

73e8ebfc5a Revise text about the level of DOM support, and provide pointers to
the work of the XML-SIG in the main body of the text.

Modify the markup in a few places to avoid wrapping lines in bad
places, and just general cleanliness.

5ccaf8f129 Apply diff3.txt (plus additional documentation)
from SF patch http://www.python.org/sf/554192

This adds two new functions to mimetypes:
guess_all_extensions() which returns a list of all known
extensions for a mime type, and add_type() which adds one
mapping between a mime type and an extension.
