By example, your code uses os.getcwd() - so it depends on the current dir. Try running it from a different directory. Don't focus too much on the ".exe" vs ".py" difference: it might not be relevant, the error may reside elsewhere.

Please post the complete exception message *and* traceback. Don't retype it; copy and paste the message from the console. Your message above doesn't appear to be correctly typed, it says `:-` but Python would print `-:` and I don't see any `-` operation in your code that could fail in that way.

Also, don't do this:

>     try:
>         mailItem.SaveAs(path+name+".txt",OlSaveAsType['olTXT'])
>     except BaseException:
>         print BaseException

because you're completely hiding important information about *what* happened.
