R. David Murray added the comment:

That is true for text/xxxx types, yes.  The policy is named after the target 
wire protocol, and if you are transmitting an email message over SMTP, that 
implies MIME.  What to do if you are not sending it over SMTP, though, is a 
tougher question. One could argue it either way for the 'default' policy, and 
I'm open to argument.
