reg email packages work

[praba kar]

Dear All,

I am working in web based email system project.
Here I try to build email message
from scratch. I used below code to build email
message

msg = email.MIMEBase('text','html')
msg['Return-Path'] = user+'@'+domain
msg['Date'] = formatdate(localtime=1)
msg['Subject'] = subject
msg['From'] = from_name
msg['To'] = to
msg['Cc'] = cc
msg.set_payload("Body of the email messagge")
fh = os.popen('/bin/sendmail %s'% (eachid),'w')
fh.write(msg.as_string())
fh.close()

This code will build plain email message properly.
But after building the message. If a email user
download this mail through out look express then
this email message will display without any alignment.
If a user type 3 paragraph message
outlook express display as a single line. What
could be problem?. Kindly let me know ASAP

regards
Prabahar

No, it doesn't. It builds an HTML message (see the very first line). If
you supply plain text to this as the body of the message, all the lines
will be concatenated together, which sounds a lot like what you are seeing.

If you are not feeding HTML as the body, change the fist line to
('text','plain').
