I'm getting the error:

    smtplib.SMTPServerDisconnected: please run connect() first

when I run code that is essentially identical to the code given in

    http://docs.python.org/library/email-examples.html

The error happens at the line (copied verbatim from the example
linked to above):

s.sendmail(me, [you], msg.as_string())

What am I doing wrong?

P.S. I'm running this using v. 2.6.1.

P.S.2. By "essentially identical" I mean that the only change I
made to the original snippet was to initialize variables that are
not initialized in the original (namely, textfile, me, and you)

The line preceeding it,

s = smtplib.SMTP()

needs to have an e-mail server specified.  E.g.

s = smtplib.SMTP('localhost')  # from the 2.5 docs


Hope this helps!
