Here's a minimal example:
import logging
from logging.handlers import SMTPHandler
if __name__ == "__main__":
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.INFO)
mail_handler = SMTPHandler(
"smtp.example.com",
"naviga...@example.com",
"captain.n...@example.com",
"fyi")
mail_handler.setLevel(logging.CRITICAL)
root = logging.getLogger()
root.addHandler(mail_handler)
# will print amessage
root.warn("this is fishy")
# will print a message and send an email
root.critical("giant squid sighted")
