Thanks Monte That’ll point me in the right direction.
I only put Ali in there because he was in the ‘blame’ list on GitHub. I figured he might know a little about it’s innards as he’d worked on it a couple of times. As I’d not got a reply I’d bumbled my way around and gave it a play based on python guides I’d found on MIME. When I’m done on this project I’ll look to improve the library inline docs.
