I don't think a new API is needed. But we need to promote the policy keyword better in docs. See https://twitter.com/aksiksi/status/741769504817045508 for an example of confusion.

I don't know if it's a good idea or API but can we add a 'policy' keyword argument to email.mime.base.MIMEBase? Right now, this is the only way to change the default policy without using high level functions like email.message_from_string():

    m = MIMEMultipart()
    m.policy = email.policy.default
