Summary: Patch to make email parser more robust

Initial Comment:
the following patch against current CVS of the email
package, as of 2002/07/18 fixes the following problems:

  in non-strict mode, messages don't require a blank
line at the end 
  with a missing end-terminator. A single newline is
sufficient now. 

The remaining fixes apply in strict or non-strict mode:

  Handle trailing whitespace at the end of a boundary.
Had to switch 
  from using string.split() to re.split().

  Handle whitespace on the end of a parameter list for
Content-type.

  Handle whitespace on the end of a plain content-type
header.
