gh-118455: Fix mangle_from_ default value in email.policy.Policy.__doc__ (GH-118456) * Fix mangle_from_ default value in email.policy.Policy.__doc__ The docstring says it defaults to True, but it actually defaults to False. Only the Compat32 subclass overrides that. --------- (cherry picked from commit fed8d73) Co-authored-by: wim glenn <jump@wimglenn.com> Co-authored-by: Nikita Sobolev <mail@sobolevn.me>
