Summary: Deprecate modules

Initial Comment:
The following modules should be marked as deprecated
because the new email package provides all the
functionality (using different APIs perhaps, and it
steals some implementation from rfc822.py, but still...)

rfc822.py
mimetools.py
MIMEWriter.py

Technically mimify.py should be deprecated too, however
the email package doesn't provide the run-as-script
functionality.  That would be easy to provide as a
Tools/script, so I still think it should be deprecated.
