Re: [Tutor] SMTP Module Help
Marco Petersen wrote:
I'm using Python 2.5.4. I wanted to try out the SMTP module. I tried to
send an email through my Gmail account but it keeps saying that the
connection was refused.
This is the code that I used :
import smtplib
msg = 'Test'
server = smtplib.SMTP('smtp.gmail.com')
server.set_debuglevel(1)
server.ehlo()
server.starttls()
server.ehlo()
server.login('marco.m.peter...@gmail.com', 'password')
server.sendmail('marco.m.peter...@gmail.com',
'marcoleepeter...@gmail.com', msg)
server.close()
This error message keeps coming up:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:/Python25/send_mail.py", line 5, in
server = smtplib.SMTP('smtp.gmail.com')
File "C:\Python25\Lib\smtplib.py", line 244, in __init__
(code, msg) = self.connect(host, port)
File "C:\Python25\Lib\smtplib.py", line 310, in connect
raise socket.error, msg
error: (10061, 'Connection refused')
Can anyone help me with this?
I must admit that I know nothing of the SMTP module, but I do know that
with gmail you need to use an SSL secure connection on port 995.
I doesn't seem to be aplied in your script as far as I can tell.

Re: [Tutor] what does the "@" operator mean?
Marc Tompkins wrote: By the way, (totally off-topic, of course, my apologies): what do all y'all call the "@" operator?

Yes like Bob says you most likly saved the interactive session.
What you should do is open IDLE as usual, and *before* you start typing
you program, you should open a "new wind" from the file menu.
This should open a blank sheet, into which you can type your program,
just as you did before (but without the >>>).
When you have done that, save the file and *remember* to add ".py" to
the filename (without the quotes), then press the F5 key to run the
program.
Happy programming.

What you need to do is loop all the way through your list and then only do something to every third element in the list This is an example of a for loop, that prints out every 3 element: >>> lst = ["hello", "sweet", "world", "goodbye", "sweet", "world"] >>> for index in lst: if index % 3 == 0: print lst[index] hello goodbye Best Regards Ole H.

Re: [Tutor] using quotes in IDLE
- Original Message - From: "Jim Morcombe" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Friday, December 14, 2007 2:43 AM Subject: [Tutor] using quotes in IDLE A really dumb question... When typing things into IDLE, how are quotes meant to work? If I type" employee.name = "Susan" then IDLE ignores the last " and I get an error. --- When pasting you code into IDLE i get this: >>> employee.name = "Susan" Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in employee.name = "Susan" NameError: name 'employee' is not defined which is the result of me not having a class called employee, do you have that? If not, you can't use dots in variable names so in stead of 'employee.name' you could use employeeName or employee_name fx >>> employee_name = "susan" >>> print employee_name susan Regards Ole Jensen ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
Re: [Tutor] updating a print statement
Sry about the previous mail.
- Original Message -
I have a print statement in a for loop so I can watch the progress
for line in file(file):
the_line = line.split()
if the_line:
print ("Index = %.2f") %index
Is there a way that only one line will be output and the variable is updated
rather than one line for every index.
-
Now I'm still only in the learning process, but couldn't you do something
like this:
for line in file(file):
the_line = line.split()
if the_line:
Index = "%.2f" %index # This line might have to be
# adjusted to do what it is
you want
print "Index= " + Index
