This question already has answers here:

Importing installed package from script raises “AttributeError: module has no attribute” or “ImportError: cannot import name” (2 answers)

Closed 5 months ago.

When running the below code, I keep getting the error:

ImportError: No module named 'email.mime'; email is not a package

So I run:

pip install email

And get the following error:

ImportError: No module named 'cStringIO'...
Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1

The internet has told me to run:

pip install --upgrade pip

To solve this problem, which I've done many times now. I don't know what else I can do.

Python version: Python 3.3.5 | Anaconda 2.3.0 (x86_64)

import smtplib,email,email.encoders,email.mime.text,email.mime.base

smtpserver = 'email@site.com'
to = ['address@gmail.com']
fromAddr = 'email@site.com'
subject = "testing email attachments"

# create html email
html = '<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" '
html +='"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"><html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">'
html +='<body style="font-size:12px;font-family:Verdana"><p>...</p>'
html += "</body></html>"
emailMsg = email.MIMEMultipart.MIMEMultipart('text/csv')
emailMsg['Subject'] = subject
emailMsg['From'] = fromAddr
emailMsg['To'] = ', '.join(to)
emailMsg['Cc'] = ", ".join(cc)
emailMsg.attach(email.mime.text.MIMEText(html,'html'))

# now attach the file
fileMsg = email.mime.base.MIMEBase('text/csv')
fileMsg.set_payload(file('rsvps.csv').read())
email.encoders.encode_base64(fileMsg)
fileMsg.add_header('Content-Disposition','attachment;filename=rsvps.csv')
emailMsg.attach(fileMsg)

# send email
server = smtplib.SMTP(smtpserver)
server.sendmail(fromAddr,to,emailMsg.as_string())
server.quit()

The issue is in pip. I was unable to update setuptools using

easy_install --upgrade setuptools

I was also unable to install email with pip using

pip install email

I fixed the problem by installing email using easy_install

easy_install email

Hope someone finds that as helpful. Thanks to those who have helped.

Don't use "email" in your .py file name or even in package name as well. This will cause confusion to the interpreter between user declared module and pre-defined modules

I had the same problem. Both answers helped me solve it. However, in addition I also had to delete the email.pyc file that was created when the script was run with the old name email.py.

To summarize:

make sure the email module is installed
delete the email.pyc file that was created when the script called email.py was run
rename the script to something else
