Eventually there is no bug, I was just confused at the output of print() on the
EmailMessage.
I noticed that in email/_header_value_parser.py policy.utf8 was True.
The reason is found in email/message.py line 970 (class MIMEPart):
def __str__(self):
return self.as_string(policy=self.policy.clone(utf8=True)
print() will use __str__() and this is why it happens.
I didn't dig out the exact reason since there are so many delegated calls.
In any case, the flattened message in smtplib.SMTP does contain what
as_string() returns, which means that the policy.utf8 is only forced when using
print().
Sorry for the false alert.
I can guess that the intention in forcing policy.utf8=True in __str__() was
that SMTPUTF8 output is visually prettier than any ASCII-armored text.
After additional fuzzing, checking the output with EmailMessage.as_string(),
everything seems OK.
That's a +1 for gh-3488, which fixes this bug.
