# Record the MIME types of both parts - text/plain and text/html.
part1 = MIMEText(text, 'plain')
part2 = MIMEText(html, 'html')
# Attach parts into message container.
# According to RFC 2046, the last part of a multipart message, in this case

msg.attach(part1)
msg.attach(part2)
# sendmail function takes 3 arguments: sender's address, recipient's address
# and message to send - here it is sent as one string.
