Certainly. Another implementation would be
lower_map = string.maketrans(string.ascii_upper,
string.ascii_lower)
def ascii_lower(str):
return str.translate(lower_map)

Ok. I'll fix it in this direction, then. There would be two copies
of this function that I can see: One for the codecs (which uses
tolower() in C code), and one in the email module.
And yes, codec names must be pure ASCII.
