Email.mime.multipart

A Python module!

email.mime.multipart is a class in the email.mime module, which is part of the Python Standard Library. It's used to create a MIME multipart message, which is a type of email message that contains multiple parts, such as text, images, and attachments.

Here's a brief overview of the class:

Class: email.mime.multipart.MIMEMultipart

Description: A class for creating a MIME multipart message.

Attributes:

• subtype: The subtype of the multipart message (e.g., "alternative", "related", "mixed").
• boundary: The boundary string used to separate the parts of the message.

Methods:

• add_header(name, value): Adds a header to the message.
• attach(filename, maintype, subtype): Attaches a file to the message.
• append(part): Appends a part to the message.
• as_string(): Returns the message as a string.

Example usage:

from email.mime.multipart import MIMEMultipart
from email.mime.text import MIMEText
from email.mime.image import MIMEImage

msg = MIMEMultipart()
msg['Subject'] = 'Test message'
msg['From'] = '[email protected]'
msg['To'] = '[email protected]'

text_part = MIMEText('Hello, world!')
msg.attach(text_part)

image_part = MIMEImage(open('image.jpg', 'rb'))
msg.attach(image_part)

print(msg.as_string())

This example creates a MIME multipart message with two parts: a text part and an image part. The attach() method is used to add each part to the message, and the as_string() method is used to convert the message to a string.
