    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 apropriate format/encoding/whatever. Sometimes, though, some unification is
-desireable. For example, one may want to put mail messages into an archive,
-make HTML indicies, run search indexer, etc. In such situations converting
-messages to text in one character set and skipping some binary atachmetnts is
-much desireable.

    Here is the solution - mimedecode.py.
 
    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 mesage,
-and decoded to stdout. If the file is not an RFC822 message it is just piped to
-stdout one-to-one. If the file is a simple RFC822 message it is just 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 2.2.0 (2013-12-21)
-   Rename __version__.py to mimedecode_version.py.
+Version 2.8.0 (2017-08-??)
 
-   Use setuptools.
+   Python 3.
+
+   Stop supporting Python 2.6.
+
+   Monkey-patch email.message._formatparam under Python 3:
+   replace it with _formatparam from Python 2.7
+   to avoid re-encoding non-ascii params.
+
+   Fix: do not decode bytes to unicode under Python 2.7.
