mailcap
~~~~~~~
The `mailcap <https://docs.python.org/3/library/mailcap.html>`__ package
reads *mail capability* files to assist in handling a file attachment in
an email. In most modern OSs the email client itself handles reacting to
file attachments. Operating systems also have their own way to register
handling files by their file name extension. Finally, the module has
`CVE-2015-20107 <https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2015-20107>`__ filed
against it while having no maintainer to help fix it.
