R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment: Oh, you are right. I even noted that bug in my PyCon talk, but immediately forgot about it :( I do intend to fix it.
You can get it to work by explicitly passing the charset: >>> x = MIMEText('йцукен', _charset='utf8') >>> str(x) 'Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf8"\nMIME-Version: 1.0\nContent-Transfer-Encoding: base64\n\n0LnRhtGD0LrQtdC9\n' When I asked the use case, I meant specifically for calling encode_quopri, etc. Given the above, do you need it anymore? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14360> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
