Hi,
I'm sorry to ask such a FAQ but still I couldn't find an answer - neither in
the docs nor the web.
What's wrong with the following script?
Many thanks for a hint,
Helmut.
#!/usr/bin/python3
#_*_ coding: latin1 _*_
import smtplib
from email.message import Message
import datetime
msg= Message()
msg.set_charset('latin-1')
msg['Subject'] = "*** Email Test ***"
msg['From'] = "email_tes...@numa-sv.igpm.rwth-aachen.de"
msg['To'] = "jarau...@igpm.rwth-aachen.de"
msg['Date'] = datetime.datetime.utcnow().strftime('%m/%d/%Y %I:%M:%S %p')
server= smtplib.SMTP("igpm.igpm.rwth-aachen.de")
msg.set_payload("Gedanken über einen Test","iso-8859-1")
## I have tried msg.set_payload("Gedanken über einen
Test".encode("iso-8859-1"),"iso-8859-1")
## which fails, as well
server.send_message(msg)
Traceback (most recent call last):
