Source code: Lib/email/generator.py One of the most common tasks is to generate the flat (serialized) version of the email message represented by a message object structure.

As with the email.parser module, you aren't limited to the functionality of the bundled generator; you could write one from scratch yourself. However the bundled generator knows how to generate most email in a standards-compliant way, should handle MIME and non-MIME email messages just fine, and is designed so that the bytes-oriented parsing and generation operations are inverses, assuming the same non-transforming Attribution: Adapted from Python Documentation under PSF-2.0.
