Summary: Incorrect return type for search() method
Initial Comment:
The documentation for search() method of the IMAP4
object says
that it returns a string, but it actually returns a tuple.
>>> print imaplib.IMAP4.search.__doc__
Search mailbox for matching messages.
(typ, [data]) = <instance>.search(charset,
criterion, ...)
'data' is space separated list of matching
message numbers.
Error can be seen in docs on page:
http://docs.python.org/lib/imap4-objects.html
Yours,
Noah

Thanks. I removed the sentance about returned data since
there is a description of all return values at the top of
the doc. I also corrected the examples.
Checked in as:
* Doc/lib/libimaplib.tex 1.34 and 1.30.4.3
