You need to include it in the headers of the email. A complete email
would then look like:

"""
From: me at somewhere.net
To: whoever at somwhereother.
Subject: Sent with smtplib

hi

this is just a test message. bye.
"""

Note the blank line between the headers and the actual message body,
starting with "hi". Oh well, it also should have a Date header and
probably some others. Btw. the From: and To: can AFAIK be anything.
That's why spammers can easily fake them.

As you're using Python 2.2, there's also a nice new module called email
that simplifies constructing and parsing email messages. A complete
example for sending an email (with Subject) can be found at:
