Lets also fix some existing bugs, for 2.6, 2.7, and possibly 3.1 if

I'm not able to check out that branch:

    bzr ERROR: Not a branch: "bzr+ssh"//bazaar.lanchpad.net//~barry/python/email6/".

Probably it is because it has not been pushed.

As I'm new to bzr and launchpad, I'm not sure what all that means. 
Does it mean that I should create a branch at my own launchpad account,
based on a checkout of lp:~barry/python/email6?
