 WHAT IS IT
 
    Mail users, especially in non-English countries, often find that mail
 messages arrived in different formats, with different content types, in
-different encodings and charsets. Usually this is good because it allows us to
-use appropriate format/encoding/whatever. Sometimes, though, some unification
-is desirable. For example, one may want to put mail messages into an archive,
-make HTML indices, run search indexer, etc. In such situations converting
-messages to text in one character set and skipping some binary attachments is
-much desirable.

-   Here is the solution - mimedecode.py.
+   Here is the solution - mimedecode.
 
-   This is a program to decode MIME messages. The program expects one input
-file (either on command line or on stdin) which is treated as an RFC822
-message, and decodes to stdout or an output file. If the file is not an RFC822
-message it is just copied to the output one-to-one. If the file is a simple
-RFC822 message it is decoded as one part. If it is a MIME message with multiple
-parts ("attachments") all parts are decoded. Decoding can be controlled by
-command-line options.

-WHAT'S NEW in version 2.3.4 (2014-02-??)
+   Think about said mail archive; for example, its maintainer wants to
+put there only texts, convert PDF/Postscript to text, pass HTML and
+images decoding base64 to html but leaving images encoded, and ignore
+everything else. This is how it could be done:
 
-   Optimize recursive decoding.
+   mimedecode -t application/pdf -t application/postscript -t text/plain -b text/html -B 'image/*' -i '*/*'
 
-   Fix a bug - decode message/rfc822 subparts.
 
-WHAT'S NEW in version 2.3.3 (2014-02-02)
-   Forbid filtering from console. When the program runs with stdin
-   connected to the console it shows usage help.
+Version 2.9.0 (2017-12-12)
 
-   Fix a bug - option -o and no parameters.
+   Split mimedecode.py into mimedecode library and a small script.
 
-WHAT'S NEW in version 2.3.2 (2014-02-01)
-   Fix a bug - do not generate 'From ' headers in subparts.
+   Made the library executable via ``python -m mimedecode``.
 
-   Add option --host.
+Version 2.8.0 (2017-11-03)
 
-   Add tests.
+   Python 3.
 
-WHAT'S NEW in version 2.3.1 (2014-01-31)
-   Update documentation.
-
-WHAT'S NEW in version 2.3.0 (2014-01-30)
-   Add option -o and output_file argument.
-
-WHAT'S NEW in version 2.2.0 (2013-12-21)
-   Rename __version__.py to mimedecode_version.py.
-
-   Use setuptools.
+   Stop supporting Python 2.6.
