The "*.eml.txt" text files here are examples of what imapfetch creates for folders 
at your IMAP-enabled email account -- it makes one file per account folder, with 
multiple emails per file.  Set the script's MBOXSKIP or MBOXSAVE lists to select 
specific folders for download, or leave these [] to fetch all folders instead.

Open the "*.eml.txt" save-mail files created by imapfetch for viewing with PyMailGUI's 
"Open" button.  PyMailGUI is an email client, available both in the book "Programming 
Python, 4th Edition", and as a standalone release package at the following website:

   http://learning-python.com/downloads 

See the screenshot files in this folder for PyMailGUI in action, and the PyMailGUI
standalone release's Readme-PyMailGUI.html for a guide to viewing saved-mail files.
Among other things, PyMailGUI lets you view, delete, copy, and move mails in files 
created by imapfetch.  This supports partitioning emails by categories, years, etc.
