I just found out that the attachment works fine
when I read the mail from the gmail website. Thunderbird
complains that the attachment is empty.
Thanks,
Toby

I've been sending an email blast out with smtplib and
it's been working fine. I'm attaching an html doc with
msg.attach(MIMEText(email, 'html'))

doc, but Thunderbird complains that the attachment
is empty. When I view the source of the email, the
headers look ok to me, and a large base64 looking
mess follows:
--===============0152408622==
Content-Type: application/pdf
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="tics.pdf"

and so on. I've tried a few recipes, and this is the one I'm trying now:
pdf = MIMEApplication(pdf_data, 'pdf')
pdf.add_header('Content-Disposition','attachment', filename = 'tics.pdf')
msg.attach(pdf)
Any help is appreciated. Also, if anyone has a working recipe, I'd like to
see it.
Thanks!
