[New-bugs-announce] [issue14158] test_mailbox fails if file or dir named by support.TESTFN exists

[Vinay Sajip]

New submission from Vinay Sajip <vinay_sajip at yahoo.co.uk>:

test_mailbox fails if another failed test leaves a file or directory with the name given by support.TESTFN. The attached patch rectifies this, and also uses existing stdlib functionality (shutil.rmtree) to remove a directory tree recursively on tearDown.
