<span class="versionmodified">Deprecated since version 2.6: </span>The <tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">mhlib</span></tt> module has been removed in Python 3.0. Use the
<a title="Manipulate mailboxes in various formats" class="reference external" href="mailbox.html#module-mailbox"><tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">mailbox</span></tt></a> instead.</p>
<p>The <tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">mhlib</span></tt> module provides a Python interface to MH folders and their
contents.</p>
<p>The module contains three basic classes, <a title="mhlib.MH" class="reference internal" href="#mhlib.MH"><tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">MH</span></tt></a>, which represents a
particular collection of folders, <a title="mhlib.Folder" class="reference internal" href="#mhlib.Folder"><tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">Folder</span></tt></a>, which represents a single
folder, and <a title="mhlib.Message" class="reference internal" href="#mhlib.Message"><tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">Message</span></tt></a>, which represents a single message.</p>
