R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment:

It took me a while to figure out why latin-1 works.  I turns out to be an 
accident: latin-1 uses quoted-printable encoding, and the email quoprimime 
module accidentally manages to quote unicode characters in the latin-1 range.

The Header example, as noted by the OP, is working as documented.  This 
confusing interface isn't going to get fixed in the current email package.  The 
equivalent email6 API will be cleaner.

The MIMEText portion is a duplicate of issue 1368247.
