I am newbie to Python. I wanted to send html based email with company logo embedded on top left to the email body.
With the following code the email is absolutely working but not attaching the embedded image anymore. Not sure where i did mistake. Can anyone please help me out here.
import smtplib
from email.mime.multipart import MIMEMultipart
from email.mime.text import MIMEText
from email.MIMEImage import MIMEImage
msg = MIMEMultipart('alternative')
msg['Subject'] = "My text dated %s" % (today)
msg['From'] = sender
msg['To'] = receiver
html = """\
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<img src="cid:image1" alt="Logo" style="width:250px;height:50px;"><br>
<p><h4 style="font-size:15px;">Some Text.</h4></p>
</body>
</html>
"""
# The image file is in the same directory as the script
fp = open('logo.png', 'rb')
msgImage = MIMEImage(fp.read())
fp.close()
msgImage.add_header('Content-ID', '<image1>')
msg.attach(msgImage)
part2 = MIMEText(html, 'html')
msg.attach(part2)
mailsrv = smtplib.SMTP('localhost')
mailsrv.sendmail(sender, receiver, msg.as_string())
mailsrv.quit()

I figured out the issue. Here is the updated code for your referance.
import smtplib
from email.mime.multipart import MIMEMultipart
from email.mime.text import MIMEText
from email.MIMEImage import MIMEImage
msg = MIMEMultipart('related')
msg['Subject'] = "My text dated %s" % (today)
msg['From'] = sender
msg['To'] = receiver
html = """\
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<img src="cid:image1" alt="Logo" style="width:250px;height:50px;"><br>
<p><h4 style="font-size:15px;">Some Text.</h4></p>
</body>
</html>
"""
# Record the MIME types of text/html.
part2 = MIMEText(html, 'html')
# Attach parts into message container.
msg.attach(part2)
# This example assumes the image is in the current directory
fp = open('logo.png', 'rb')
msgImage = MIMEImage(fp.read())
fp.close()
# Define the image's ID as referenced above
msgImage.add_header('Content-ID', '<image1>')
msg.attach(msgImage)
# Send the message via local SMTP server.
mailsrv = smtplib.SMTP('localhost')
mailsrv.sendmail(sender, receiver, msg.as_string())
mailsrv.quit()
