        s.login(username, passwd )
        s.sendmail(username, send_to,msg.as_string())
        s.close()
    except Exception as e:
        print 'Exception: send email failed', e

    to_list = ['a@y.com','b@t.com']
    subject = "邮件主题"
    content = '使用Python发送邮件'
    send_email(host,username,passwd,to_list,subject,content)

注意：不能将文件名叫做email.py，否则会报 ImportError: No module named mime.text

因为在代码开头使用了 from email.mime.text import MIMEText

如果文件名叫email.py,呵呵,你懂得。。。
