I've also tried to use MIME to encode both the html, and an
alternative text/html message, however all the encoding goes after
the double newline
and is not interpreted as an header.

so  Yarko are you saying that by doing  send(message='hello message')
instead of send(to=['m...@me.com'], message='hello message')
it should worrk by including the correct headers in the message?
