Optional mangle_from_ is a flag that, when True (the default if policy
is not set), escapes From_ lines in the body of the message by putting
a `>' in front of them.
Optional maxheaderlen specifies the longest length for a non-continued
header. When a header line is longer (in characters, with tabs
expanded to 8 spaces) than maxheaderlen, the header will split as
defined in the Header class. Set maxheaderlen to zero to disable
header wrapping. The default is 78, as recommended (but not required)
by RFC 2822.
The policy keyword specifies a policy object that controls a number of
aspects of the generator's operation. If no policy is specified,
the policy associated with the Message object passed to the
flatten method is used.
