On 27 Jun 2005 15:38:59 -0700, rumours say that "Inkiniteo"
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> might have written:

Please tell us what you do more precisely:
* do you send the "info" as an attachment using the email package?
* do you create alternative text and HTML parts for the body?
I have never managed to send plain text email and receive it as HTML.
Perhaps you mean that some "smart" client does something stupid with
your text, eg. it removes line-breaks you have in your message?
Try this:
import smtplib
def send(server, from_whom, to_whom_list):
smtp = smtplib.SMTP(server)
smtp.sendmail(from_whom, to_whom_list,
"""From: %s
To: %s
Subject: test email
This is a test.
It has line breaks.
Does it come as three separate lines?""" % (from_whom,
", ".join(to_whom_list))
I tried it as
send('localhost', '[EMAIL PROTECTED]', ['[EMAIL PROTECTED]'])
and I had no problem. What happens for you (substitute other server and
email addresses, obviously :) ?
