_text is the string for this message object. If the text does not end
in a newline, one is added.
_subtype is the MIME sub content type, defaulting to "plain".
_charset is the character set parameter added to the Content-Type:
header. This defaults to "us-ascii".
_encoder is a function which will perform the actual encoding for
transport of the text data. It takes one argument, which is this
Text instance. It should use get_payload() and set_payload() to
change the payload to the encoded form. It should also add any
Content-Transfer-Encoding: or other headers to the message as
necessary. The default encoding doesn't actually modify the payload,
but it does set Content-Transfer-Encoding: to either `7bit' or `8bit'
as appropriate.
