Initialize with name of the Maildir mailbox

def getMessage(self, i): (source)

Return an open file-pointer to a message

This is done using the basename of the filename. It is globally unique because this is how Maildirs are designed.

This only moves a message to the .Trash/ subfolder, so it can be undeleted by an administrator.

def undeleteMessages(self): (source)

Undelete any deleted messages it is possible to undelete

This moves any messages from .Trash/ subfolder back to their original position, and empties out the deleted dictionary.

Parameters	txt	A `str` or file-like object giving the message to append.
Returns	A `Deferred` which fires when the message has been appended to the mailbox.
