Original PR description

[REF] mail: remove deprecated email formataddr

[PEP 594] is going to depreciate the legacy `email.message.Message` API
and its related modules. Among them the `email.utils.formataddr`
function, this function takes a `(name, email)` pair and returns a
string value suitable for From, To and CC headers.

The function has been re-implemented by Odoo/Odoo#a5ea588e to support
the character encoding and binary-to-text encoding used by Odoo.
