Installing python 3.9 is not an option for me at this time. And that's a lousy strategy for fixing a coding issue.

The problem with the python client appears to be the list[Identity] construct in the Letter init

It turns out the issue was that string.removeprefix (which is only used on line 46 in misfin.py) was introduced in v3.9

I replaced: raw = raw.removeprefix("misfin://") with raw = raw[9:] and got things working.

Edit: I also had to replace list[Identity] with Identity on letter.py line 25
