title: Why am I getting the error: No module named 'email.MIMEMultipart'?
body: <p>I'm trying to experiment with simple code to send an email from a Python script. I keep getting an error that the module 'email.MIMEMultipart' does not exist. To simplify the question/answer process, I can narrow it down even further. From the Python environment prompt I can enter</p>
  <h1>&gt;&gt;&gt;import email</h1>
  <h1>&gt;&gt;&gt; dir(email)</h1>
  <p>It will list a bunch of modules in the email module, but none of the MIME modules are there. I can see them from WindowsExplorer in the same lib folder as all the other modules. After searching other questions I did see that I had named my test program 'email.py' which I see now is a big no-no. I deleted it and verified there isn't also an 'email.pyc'.</p>
  <p>I'm using Windows 10, Python 3.5.2. I've also already reinstalled Python with no improvement.</p>
  <p>Can anyone tell me what else I should check?
  This is the actual code:</p>
  <pre><code> import smtplib
   from email.MIMEMultipart import MIMEMultipart
  </code></pre>
