New submission from R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com>:
The following produces a non-conformant message, since the us-ascii
charset is strictly 7bit:
>>> import email.message
>>> m = email.message.Message()
>>> m.set_payload("""A few lines
... of 8-bit text
...
... One high bit character: ².
... """, 'us-ascii')
>>> print m.as_string()
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
A few lines
of 8-bit text
One high bit character: ².
>>>
