SMTP with attachments

Thu Apr 11 05:34:11 EDT 2002

How do I send an e-mail with attachments?
I am a newbie so be gentle.
I found a couple of examples (mfetch.py and MailTest.py) but could not get them to work.
MailTest.py raises an exception re "instructions.txt" not found.
mfetch.py imports "win32com.client" which I don't have and may not want to use as my program most likely will be run on a Linux box.
Please help.
 <<MailTest.py>> 
 <<mfetch.py>>
