Send Email with Attachment

Im getting a False response from m.sendMessage() when using attachments and I have no idea why. The print statement returns False when the following lines are removed it sends fine;

att = Attachment(path=filepath)
m.attachments.append(att)

example function

def email_message(username, password, dir_path):
	try:
		filepath = dir_path + '/filename_{}.csv'.format(str(now))
		authenticiation = (username, password)
		m = Message(auth=authenticiation)
		att = Attachment(path=filepath)
		m.attachments.append(att)
		m.setRecipients("[e-mail]")
		m.setSubject("Subject")
		m.setBody("Testing")
		sent = m.sendMessage()
		print sent

	except Exception, e:
		traceback.print_exc()
		print 'Sending Email Failed'
		print e
		return False

	return sent

Found it. I was using “encodebytes” to do the B64 encoding, but that method isn’t available in python 2. Fix coming soon.

@sampellino used your workaround to attach. The library still seems to be broken for me.
