Actually, upon looking more at the output, it has *both* "utf-8" and "us-ascii" as the charset. I'm not sure if this is the result of code changes I've made, or I just missed it the first time around - but my Django email output now looks like this:
---------- MESSAGE FOLLOWS ---------- Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Subject: some_subject From: m...@test.com To: m...@test.com Date: Tue, 17 May 2011 19:58:16 -0000 Message-ID: <20110517195816.16624.1004@CRAY> X-Peer: 127.0.0.1 Content-Type: text/us-ascii; charset=3D"us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit this is a test of a really long line that has more words that could possibl= y fit in a single column of text. ------------ END MESSAGE ------------ So although I'm creating a MIMEText object with a plain, "us-ascii" string - somewhere, Django is sending a charset of "utf-8". At least if I read this correctly. So does anyone know how to tell Django to *not* send "utf-8"?
