Today I needed to send email from a Python script. As always I searched Google and found the following script that fits to my need. import smtplib SERVER = "localhost" FROM = "sender@example.com" TO = ["user@example.com"] # must be a list SUBJECT = "Hello!" TEXT = "This message was sent with Python's smtplib." # Prepare actual message message = """\ From: %s To: %s Subject: %s %s """ % (FROM, ", ".join(TO), SUBJECT, TEXT) # Send the mail server = smtplib.SMTP(SERVER) server.sendmail(FROM, TO, message) server.quit() But when I tried to run the program, I got the following error message: Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:/Python26/email.py", line 1, in <module> import smtplib File "C:\Python26\lib\smtplib.py", line 46, in <module> import email.utils File "C:/Python26/email.py", line 24, in <module> server = smtplib.SMTP(SERVER) AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'SMTP' How can i solve this problem? Any one can help me? Thanks in advance, Nimmy. changed the name to emailsendin .py. But I got the following error Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Python26\emailsending.py", line 24, in <module> server = smtplib.SMTP(SERVER) File "C:\Python26\lib\smtplib.py", line 239, in __init__ (code, msg) = self.connect(host, port) File "C:\Python26\lib\smtplib.py", line 295, in connect self.sock = self._get_socket(host, port, self.timeout) File "C:\Python26\lib\smtplib.py", line 273, in _get_socket return socket.create_connection((port, host), timeout) File "C:\Python26\lib\socket.py", line 512, in create_connection raise error, msg error: [Errno 10061] No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it
