You could use your favourite search engine to look this up. Or you could poke around with the Python standard library and see if anything looks promising:

https://docs.python.org/3/library/

Hint: There is something there.

Python's email moudle:

https://docs.python.org/2/library/email.html

is useful for creating emails. And Python's smtplib module:

https://docs.python.org/2/library/smtplib.html

is useful for sending them.

You look at the "email" package to build the message and the "smtplib" package to send the message -
both are part of Python's runtime library and documented in its documentation.

Note that you need access to an "smtp" server (aka "mail server"). It ensures in cooperation with other "smtp" servers the distribution of your email around the world. Access to an "smtp" server is a non-Python issue.

I want to use the stdout of child process as an input of another thread, but some how I am not able to read the stdout. Using Popen I have created a child process and stdout of it I have redirected to PIPE (because I don't want that to be printed on with my main process). Now using this statement,"Line=Proc.stdout.readline()" I want to read stdout of child process and I have to do operation on that. but somehow i am not able to read from stdout of child process.

Following is the code snapshot -

Proc = Popen(["python.exe","filename.py"],stdout=PIPE)

while True:
            Line = Proc.stdout.readline()
            print Line

Here,
Filename.py(Child process) is continuously printing "Hello World!!" in place of reading stdout of child process.
