In my case, I implement an application with python to accomplish
collecting real time data from a serial port: com1 which is connected
to some xbee hardwares.
The python logging module is used to save the information generated at
runtime into a log file. Since the site is far away from my office, I
try to
use a smtp server with the python smtplib module to send the log file
into my email account regularly so that I can check it from anywhere.
Thanks for your suggestion.
