Barry Warsaw 2f514a806d These two classes provide bases for more specific content type
subclasses.

MIMENonMultipart: Base class for non-multipart/* content type subclass
specializations, e.g. image/gif.  This class overrides attach() which
raises an exception, since it makes no sense to attach a subpart to
e.g. an image/gif message.

MIMEMultipart: Base class for multipart/* content type subclass
specializations, e.g. multipart/mixed.  Does little more than provide
a useful constructor.

By default, creates a multipart/mixed message, with proper
Content-Type: and MIME-Version: headers.
_subtype is the subtype of the multipart content type, defaulting to
`mixed'.
boundary is the multipart boundary string. By default it is
calculated as needed.
_subparts is a sequence of initial subparts for the multipart. It
must be possible to convert this sequence to a list. You can always
attach new subparts to the message by using the attach() method.
Additional parameters for the Content-Type: header are taken from the
keyword arguments (or passed into the _params argument).
