In rewriting the examples in the email docs to use the new policies, I discovered that smtplib has a bug when handling a message that uses an EmailPolicy derived policy if the addresses contain unicode characters. Currently it is extracting the addresses as unicode strings instead of transport encoded strings. It needs a special case to handle EmailPolicy Messages.
