Documentation for modules inside the email package 
lacks reference to module name in title (and body too).
By example, there is no clue in 12.2.1 that the Message 
class being described is contained in the email.Message 
module. Or 12.2.2 doesnt menction that FeedParser, 
HeaderParser and Parser are all classes contained in 
module email.Parser. And so on.

Looking at other similar standard packages (like 
curses) seems that the module name should appear first 
in the title.

Assigned to the email tsar.  This is complicated by the
dual-naming approach for Python 2.5.

This is actually handled in Python 2.5 (email 4.0) much
better, and I don't plan on backporting this to Python 2.4
(email 3.0).
