Summary: mailbox.py uses old email names

Initial Comment:
mailbox.py uses old (and presumably deprecated) names for stuff in the email 
package. This can confuse application packagers such as py2app. I believe the 
complete list of desirable changes is:

email.Generator -> email.generator
email.Message -> email.message
email.message_from_string -> email.parser.message_from_string
email.message_from_file -> email.parser.message_from_file

I submitted patches for urllib, urllib2 and smptlib but wasn't sure enough of 
mailbox to do that. Those four modules are the only instances I found that 
needed changing at the main level of the library.

However, I did not do a recursive search. There may be files inside packages 
that could also use cleanup.

Barry, are the suggested name changes for the email module correct?  If
yes, please assign this bug back to me and I'll make the changes to the
mailbox module.
