See https://bugs.debian.org/936146 for details. Well, I took a quick stab at porting archivemail to python 3. As the bug report mentions, indeed the old rfc822 library doesn't map very well to today's email.message library. However, as the rfc822 in Python 2 is a single small python file, I just grabbed that, and put it, archivemail and test_archivemail through the 2to3 converter. End result, after a couple of minor fixes I had 46/99 tests passing and it seems most of the failures have one of two issues so might be easy to fix. So with this approach this seems doable even with my programming skills. No promises but I'll see if I can find the time and energy to do more.
