Hi,
I have a function that sends mail but I'm finding the number of
characters in the To: field is limited to ~255 characters. This means
that email is sent to only part of the email list.
#recipients is a list of email addresses, greater than 255 characters
in total
header = "To: " + string.join(rec ipients, "; ") + "\r\n" \
"From: " + "te*****@test.c om\r\n" \
"Date: " + time.strftime(" %A, %B %d, %Y %I:%M %p",
sendTime)+ "\r\n"
"X-Mailer: Automated Test \r\n" \
"Subject: " + subject + "\r\n\r\n"
text = header + mailText
server = smtplib.SMTP('s omething.someth ing.com')
result = server.sendmail ("te*****@test. com", recipients, text)
server.quit()
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks 1 2108

What does "recipients " contain? That's the relevant thing here,
not the To: header.
SMTP does not use the To: header for any purpose. In fact, it can
be absent. If only some people are receiving your message, it is
something to do with the recipients list (note: it must be a list)
and not the header. Or there's a problem with an intermediate
mail relay. Or something else. Always lots of ways for this stuff
to fail except, generally, the To: header.

how do i use smtplib to send mail to someone with "cc" to someone else?
if i just include the "to" addressees in the call to smtplib.sendmail(), and
put the others in the "Cc" header fields, only the "To" recipients get the mail,
thought the mail headers look right.
but if i also add the "Cc" folks to the list of recipients in the call to smtplib.sendmail(),
it arrives at their mailer with their address listed on both the "To" and "Cc"...

When I do this (names changed to protect the innocent):

I am learning how to use the smtplib module, but am having some very

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
