[Tutor] So close! But ... error: (10054, 'Connection reset by peer')

[Grady Henry]

I think that I am so close to getting this 
simple program to run correctly:

# Import smtplib for the actual sending 
functionimport smtplib

# Import the email modules we'll needfrom 
email.MIMEText import MIMEText

# Open a plain text file for reading. For 
this example, assume that# the text file contains only ASCII 
characters.fp = open(r'C:\Documents and 
Settings\User\Desktop\\text3.txt')# Create a text/plain messagemsg = 
MIMEText(fp.read())fp.close()

# me == the sender's email address# you == the 
recipient's email addressmsg['Subject'] = 'The contents of %s' % 
'C:\Documents and Settings\User\Desktop\\text3.txt'msg['From'] = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'msg['To'] = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'

# Send the message via our own SMTP server, but 
don't include the# envelope header.s = 
smtplib.SMTP()s.set_debuglevel(1)s.connect(host='', 
port=25)__init__(self, host='', port=25, 
local_hostname=None)s.sendmail('[EMAIL PROTECTED]', ['[EMAIL PROTECTED]'], 
msg.as_string())s.quit()s.close()

But when I run it using IDLE, I get the 
following:


IDLE 1.1.3  No 
Subprocess  connect: ('', 25)connect: ('', 
25)Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Documents and

line = self.file.readline() File "C:\Python24\lib\socket.py", line

Can anybody help?

[Tutor] error: (10054, 'Connection reset by peer')

[Grady Henry]

Here is a program that I wrote using one of 
the python.org's examples at 12.2.13 (first example 
listed):

# Import smtplib for the actual sending 
functionimport smtplib

# Import the email modules we'll needfrom 
email.MIMEText import MIMEText

# Open a plain text file for reading. For 
this example, assume that# the text file contains only ASCII 
characters.fp = open(r'C:\Documents and 
Settings\User\Desktop\\text3.txt')# Create a text/plain messagemsg = 
MIMEText(fp.read())fp.close()

# me == the sender's email address# you == the 
recipient's email addressmsg['Subject'] = 'The contents of %s' % 
'C:\Documents and Settings\User\Desktop\\text3.txt'msg['From'] = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'msg['To'] = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'

# Send the message via our own SMTP server, but 
don't include the# envelope header.s = 
smtplib.SMTP()s.connect()__init__(self, host='', port=0, 
local_hostname=None)s.sendmail('[EMAIL PROTECTED]', ['[EMAIL PROTECTED]'], 
msg.as_string())s.close()

And this is what I get when I run the 
program using IDLE:

Traceback (most recent call last): File 
"C:\Documents and Settings\User\Desktop\textsender.py", line 23, in 
? s.connect() File "C:\Python24\lib\smtplib.py", 
line 307, in connect (code, msg) = 
self.getreply() File "C:\Python24\lib\smtplib.py", line 348, in 
getreply line = self.file.readline() File 
"C:\Python24\lib\socket.py", line 340, in readline data = 
"">error: (10054, 'Connection reset by 
peer')

Anybody have any 
suggestions?

[Tutor] Python Programming Books

[Grady Henry]

I have three books on Python programming, Learning Python by O'Reilly, 
Beginning Python by Hetland, and Python in a Nutshell by O'Reilly.  Are 
these good (recommended) books?  Any others that might be recommended?

[Tutor] error: (10054, 'Connection reset by peer')

[Grady Henry]

Here is a program that I wrote using the first 
example at 12.2.13 Examples at the www.python.org website,

# Import smtplib for the actual sending 
functionimport smtplib

# Import the email modules we'll needfrom 
email.MIMEText import MIMEText

# Open a plain text file for reading. For 
this example, assume that# the text file contains only ASCII 
characters.fp = open('C:\Documents and 
Settings\User\Desktop\\text3.txt','rb')# Create a text/plain messagemsg 
= MIMEText(fp.read())fp.close()

# me == the sender's email address# you == the 
recipient's email addressmsg['Subject'] = 'The contents of %s' % 
'C:\Documents and Settings\User\Desktop\\text3.txt'msg['From'] = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'msg['To'] = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'

# Send the message via our own SMTP server, but 
don't include the# envelope header.s = 
smtplib.SMTP()s.connect()s.sendmail(me, [you], 
msg.as_string())s.close()

When I run the program using IDLE, I get the 
following message:

Traceback (most recent call last): File 
"C:\Documents and Settings\User\Desktop\textsender.py", line 23, in 
? s.connect() File "C:\Python24\lib\smtplib.py",

getreply line = self.file.readline() File 
"C:\Python24\lib\socket.py", line 340, in readline data = 
"">error: (10054, 'Connection reset by

What does this mean, and how can I fix 
it?
