Keeping localtime as a convenience function in email.util is fine, but isdst argument should be eliminated at some point. There is a fundamental problem with disambiguating fold times with isdst: some folds do not involve the change in dst or happen in the regions that do not have a dst regime at all. PEP 495 covers this in all the gory details.
