Hi @bob, welcome to the gang...


      I am a beginner in Python, been working on class material from Mosh

      I have spent some time trying to figure out resolve ...
      Can you help me with this pistol of a problem …


("pistol"? ...he says, manfully-struggling with the temptation to suggest that you "make love not war"...)


Let's look at the information given (in the "stack trace":

<<<ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'email.mime'; 'email' is not a package>>>

On line 1, the code requests that a module named/addressed as "email.mime.multipart" be located ("found"), and an object ("MIMEMultipart") be imported (etc, etc).

So, when executing line 1, Python was unable to find the specified module (let's over-simplify and use the word: "file").


Libraries from the Python Standard Library are not included in the basic "python" download, and have to be added/separately downloaded, when needed. I suspect this is the problem (but may not be)!


Sadly, I am not a user of MS-Win, so am loath to try to help much more, for fear of leading you along the wrong track. Herewith some self-study which should put your boots (back) on the ground...


WebRefs: installing packages
This is more readable: https://protechguides.com/how-to-install-python-library/ This is from 'the book of words': https://packaging.python.org/tutorials/installing-packages/

NB I understand that "pip" is installed on MS-Win as part of python, so you don't need to worry about that/can quickly check. If your course has not taken you through "virtual environments" then feel free to ignore such, for now.
