[issue5423] Exception raised when attempting to call set_charset on an email.mime.multipart once sub-parts have been attached

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray <rdmurray at bitdance.com> added the comment:

Since set_charset should not be valid on a multipart, I don't see a reason to have a separate issue for the post-attach case.

Also, although I haven't searched the RFCs, I don't think we can assume that set_chaset is valid only on text parts, so I don't think the patch will work as a solution.
