I use the email package to implement an email archiver, and I do bytes
in and bytes out.  I do threading (using header instances), and process
attachments separately, which requires that they come out of the message
in their native format, whatever that is -- I treat it as bytes.

I also maintain a Python IMAP server which uses the email package to
construct messages, and then deconstructs them to send out in response
to IMAP requests.
