A simple example to send emails via Outlook and Python win32com.
import win32com.client
s = win32com.client.Dispatch("Mapi.Session")
o = win32com.client.Dispatch("Outlook.Application")
s.Logon("Outlook2003")
Msg = o.CreateItem(0)
Msg.To = "recipient@domain.com"
Msg.CC = "more email addresses here"
Msg.BCC = "more email addresses here"
Msg.Subject = "The subject of you mail"
Msg.Body = "The main body text of you mail"
attachment1 = "Path to attachment no. 1"
attachment2 = "Path to attachment no. 2"
Msg.Attachments.Add(attachment1)
Msg.Attachments.Add(attachment2)
Msg.Send()
I wrote code like this
import win32com.client as win32 import psutil import os import subprocess # Drafting and sending email notification to senders. You can add other senders' email in the list def send_notification(): outlook = win32.Dispatch('Outlook.Application') mail = outlook.CreateItem(0x0) mail.To = 'abc@abc.com', # mail.Subject = 'Sent through Python' # mail.body = 'This email alert is auto generated. Please do not respond.' # mail.send def open_outlook(): try: subprocess.call(['C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\root\Office16\OUTLOOK.EXE']) os.system('C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\root\Office16\OUTLOOK.EXE'); except: print("Outlook didn't open successfully") for item in psutil.pids(): p = psutil.Process(item) if p.name() == "OUTLOOK.EXE": flag = 1 break else: flag = 0 if (flag == 1): send_notification() else: open_outlook() send_notification()and the error:

Hi,
What if i want to change “from” of email?
Do you know something like
mail. from=”abc@..com” or mail.sender. None of them works for me.
mail.SentOnBehalfOfName = ‘whatever@abc.com’
You have to remove the comma at the end of ‘mailTo’-line. This is leading to the error you get.
