b = unicode(a, "utf-8")
[snip]
msg = MIMEText(b)
I believe this is the problem line -- the MIMEText constructor takes
encoded strings rather than unicode objects. Try:
msg = MIMEText(a)
Or, alternatively
msg = MIMEText(b.encode('utf-8'))

Hi Geniuses,
Can anyone please show me the way.. I don't understand why this
doesn't work...
# encoding: utf-8
from email.MIMEText import MIMEText
msg = MIMEText("hi")
msg.set_charset('utf-8')
print msg.as_string()
a = 'Ho\xcc\x82tel Ste\xcc\x81phane '
b = unicode(a, "utf-8")
print b
msg = MIMEText(b)
msg.set_charset('utf-8')
print msg.as_string()
It should right??
Thanks!
