I worked on these modules. First I tried to use unicode everywhere but then I realized that each email can use a different encoding. Using a fixed charset is meanless, that's why I wrote new patches (for poplib and imaplib) to
return emails (and other status messages) as bytes strings.

Since nntplib also transport emails, I think that my current patch
(nntplib_unicode.patch) is invalid and I should write another one using
bytes. If I don't have time to fix it quickly, please leave 3714 at
state "deferred blocker".

Ok.

Barry: you closed the issue #4125 but the specified revision number is the
commit fixing issue #3988. runtests.sh have to use the -bb flag!

Yeah, finger fart there.  It's now committed.
