Aha, you were correct! It's returning an `email.header.Header`
datatype, but it's also doing this for `msg.get('Subject', '(No
Subject)')` which looks like aberrant behavior since the same for
`msg['To']` returns a string!
I may have to raise that as a bug with Python! (Either that or Python
on the mailman system is just old enough that that was fixed later...
Python 3.10)
Whether `msg.get('header_name', 'default')` returns a string or an
email.header.Header object depends on the raw value and how it is parsed
into a msg object. It does not depend on the header_name.
In either case `str(msg.get('header_name', 'default'))` will return the
appropriate string.
