Description

This issue was raised in SO:20284917.

In [8081], the email.utils package was imported.

$ python2.5
Python 2.5.6 (r256:88840, Oct 28 2013, 23:50:06) 
[GCC 4.7.3] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import email.utils
>>> 
user@ubuntu:~/Workspace/bhdev$ python2.4
Python 2.4.6 (#2, Oct 28 2013, 20:07:19) 
[GCC 4.7.3] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import email.utils
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: No module named utils

It appears that email.Utils existed in Python 2.4 and was renamed to email.utils in Python 2.5. Unfortunately this doesn't seem to have been captured in the Python documentation. Here is another ticket where they came to the same conclusion.

May I push the following change?

-from email.utils import parseaddr
+try
+    from email.utils import parseaddr
+except ImportError:  # python 2.4
+    from email.Utils import parseaddr

Now that I've caught up on recent activity, I see this is a duplicate of #11428 and #9106.

Python 2.5 to 2.7 keep backwards compatibility for package naming of email library, see http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/ae9fb85ab4e0/Lib/email/__init__.py#l87.

$ for i in 2.{4,5,6,7}; do python$i -c 'from email.Utils import parseaddr; import sys; print "%r\n%r" % (sys.version_info, parseaddr)'; done
(2, 4, 3, 'final', 0)
<function parseaddr at 0xb7f233e4>
(2, 5, 6, 'final', 0)
<function parseaddr at 0x96a417c>
(2, 6, 8, 'final', 0)
<function parseaddr at 0xb7cb872c>
sys.version_info(major=2, minor=7, micro=2, releaselevel='final', serial=0)
<function parseaddr at 0x9d76cdc>
