Thanks for the clarification Terry. This is indeed not a bug. For reference, the pieces of code I pasted line-wrapped after the 76th character, which was my main source of confusion.

After reading RFC3548, I am now informed that the behavior of string.encode is the correct and expected result, as the documentation per 7.8.3 state that it's MIME 64.
