howto send html mails using smtplib

[Philippe C. Martin]

Hi,

I have the following problem:
1) I can use smtplib to send text messages
2) I can generate html
3) I want to email the html and want it to be seen by the email client as
html.

However, when I receive the message, the email client displays it as text
(code hereunder) - I assume it has to do with the MIMEText call but since I
cannot see any MIMEhtml .....

Any clue ?

Thanks

Philippe
