PyTel - Python things for .tel

.tel is a new top level domain name (TLD) for storing contact information (e.g. e-mail addresses, telephone numbers, etc). It includes facilities for making some of your information 'private' (only visible to people you allow to see that information).

PyTel is a collection of python bits and bobs for using .tel domains.

The two main applications provided here are:

E-mail lookup from .tel for the mutt mail client
Telephone number and SIP URI lookup for Snom SIP phones

Full details are provided in the included README file.
