二进制文件电子邮件附件问题

如何解决二进制文件电子邮件附件问题

好的-经过无奈和网上搜索后，我发现问题是一个已知的错误，适用于Python 3.x，encoders.py，encode_base64函数，其内容应如下所示…

def encode_base64(msg):
    """Encode the message's payload in Base64.

    Also, add an appropriate Content-transfer-encoding header.
    """
    orig = msg.get_payload()
    encdata = _bencode(orig)

    # new line inserted to ensure all bytes characters are converted to ASCII
    encdata = str(encdata, "ASCII")

    msg.set_payload(encdata)
    msg['Content-transfer-encoding'] = 'base64'

该错误已作为问题＃4768提出，并于2010-05-10升级为严重状态。希望它将在下一版本（3.1.3？）中修复。

问候，艾伦

解决方法

使用Python 3.1.2，我在发送二进制附件文件（jpeg，pdf等）时遇到问题-MIMEText附件可以正常工作。有问题的代码如下…

for file in self.attachments:
   part = MIMEBase('application',"octet-stream")
   part.set_payload(open(file,"rb").read())
   encoders.encode_base64(part)
   part.add_header('Content-Disposition','attachment; filename="%s"' % file)
   msg.attach(part)   # msg is an instance of MIMEMultipart()

server = smtplib.SMTP(host,port)
server.login(username,password)
server.sendmail(from_addr,all_recipients,msg.as_string())

但是，在调用堆栈的最下方（请参见下面的回溯），看起来msg.as_string（）已接收到一个附件，该附件创建了“字节”类型的有效负载而不是字符串。

有谁知道是什么原因引起的问题？任何帮助，将不胜感激。
