Summary: email module: object instantiation fails

Initial Comment:
email module fails to instantiate an object when
reading in a poorly formed message from either the
message_from_file or message_from_string object.

I have commented on this already on the python-list. I
will include links to the discussions below:

Assigned to Barry.  Short course:  trying to load an ill-
formed msg can raise an exception under the email package 
where under earlier libraries the same inupt allowed making 
some (non-exceptional) progress.
