You can use smtplib or os.popen (like you have written) for sending the mail, but need to use MimeWriter or such module to build a MIME email. And put the HTML document in the MIME body appropriately.

  At the web site that I work I only get to send mails with the follow command.

  os.popen("echo 'Message of the mail' | su myself -c mail 'Subject of mail' pedro at provedor.com.br")

  However I find an commmand that I can create email in HTML.

   f = os.popen ( "/usr/sbin/sendmail", "w" )

   f.write ( """\
   From: pedro at terra.com.br
   To: joao at uol.com.br
   Subject: some subject

   body os de messagem
   """ )

  this comand allow me to create since an simple text mail until an HTML email, but this command not run in my FreeBSD (with SendMail). The browser show an I/O Error.

  Or some body have some source-code with this that I want.

  SOME BODY CAN HELP-ME please.

  tanks for all.
