Doing non-ASCII email in python before 3.3 is a bit of a pain and not as well
documented as it should be. 3.3 will work more like you expect, if you use the
new provisional policies (which are intended to become standard in 3.4, after a
the bake-in period in 3.3).
For 3.2, you need to handle encoding addresses using utils.formataddr and
header.Header:
>>> h = Header(header_name='Sender')
>>> h.append("Éric", 'latin-1')
>>> h.append('<e...@example.com>')
>>> h.encode()
'=?iso-8859-1?q?=C9ric?= <e...@example.com>'
>>> m = Message()
>>> m['Sender'] = h
>>> print(m)
Sender: =?iso-8859-1?q?=C9ric?= <e...@example.com>
In 3.3 this will work:
>>> m = Message()
>>> m['Sender'] = formataddr(('Éric', 'e...@example.com'))
>>> print(m)
Sender: =?iso-8859-1?q?=C9ric?= <e...@example.com>
But even better, so will this:
>>> m = Message(policy=policy.SMTP)
>>> m['From'] = "Günter Weiße <jarau...@igpm.rwth-aachen.de>"
>>> print(m)
From: =?utf-8?q?G=C3=BCnter_Wei=C3=9Fe?= <jarau...@igpm.rwth-aachen.de>
