Noted. That seems like the correct approach to me.

Right. Quoted-printable encoding for the transport.

Yes.

Yes, and I was thinking abut this yesterday. I suspect that 
`print(some_message_object)` is intended to transcribe it for transport.  
For example, one could write to an mbox file and just print() the 
message into it and get correct transport/storage formatting, which 
includes the qp encoding.

Can you should the code (or example code) which leads to the qp output?  
I suspect there's a straight forward way to get the decoded Unicode, but 
I'd need to see how what you've got was obtained.
