I don't think that it's an M2Crypto-specific problem. I found
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-checkins/2002-June/027046.html ,
so I guess that may be your problem.

If not, perhaps your distutils and email packages don't match? Have
you installed one of the externally available (distutils/email)
packages over the original Python installation?
