Hi!
String method's are really nice! (By the way: I miss a length() method)
But in some cases the old-school string module yields the more readable code.
So the "one (best) way" is not always the clearest to read and understand.
I cannot see/understand why it's the "best" way to write for example
fromaddr = " ".join(map(lambda x: x[0] ,
email.Header.decode_header(fromaddr[1])))
with this (IMHO not intuitive empty string " ") instead of
fromaddr = string.join(map(lambda x: x[0] ,
email.Header.decode_header(fromaddr[1])))
It's much cleaner to read and understand with string instead of " " - at least
for beginners, or?
