Summary: rfc822.AddressList methods incorrect

Initial Comment:
The current 2.0, and the latest development, 
documentation shows rfc822.AddressList methods __len__
() and __str__() as requiring arguments. Inspection of 
the 2.0 code shows this to be incorrect. I presume 
this will also be true of 2.1.

Furthermore, the __add__() and __sub__() methods are 
documented as taking a "name" argument, which is 
somewhat misleading since the required argument should 
be another rfc822.AddressList object. It might be 
better to use a more meaningful name such as "alist", 
and document its required type.
