Subject with SMTPLIB?

[Gregory Jorgensen]

You need to add a subject header to your message. Email message format is
simple: headers, blank line, message body.

import smtplib

msg = "subject: hello, world!\n\nmessage body"

s = smtplib.SMTP(host)
s.sendmail(fromaddr, toaddrs, msg)

You'll find a good SMTP quick reference on Dan Bernstein's site (he's the author
of qmail). See http://cr.yp.to/immhf.html.
