Hi, I tried the script below to send mail by gmail from python using
smptlib. I got the script here (http://kutuma.blogspot.com/2007/08/
sending-emails-via-gmail-with-python.html)
It works fine from home, but at work not. I think it is because I am
behind a http or a socks proxy server at work. Can I adapt this script
to work from behind the http or socks proxy? I couldnt understand from
the smtplib if I can specify this somehow?
Sincerely,
bjorn johansson

part.set_payload(open(attach, 'rb').read())
Encoders.encode_base64(part)
part.add_header('Content-Disposition',
'attachment; filename="%s"' % os.path.basename(attach))
msg.attach(part)
mailServer = smtplib.SMTP("smtp.gmail.com", 587)
mailServer.ehlo()
mailServer.starttls()
mailServer.ehlo()
mailServer.login(gmail_user, gmail_pwd)
mailServer.sendmail(gmail_user, to, msg.as_string())
# Should be mailServer.quit(), but that crashes...
mailServer.close()
mail("some.per...@some.address.com",
"Hello from python!",
"This is a email sent with python",
"my_picture.jpg")
