from email.mime.text import MIMEText

from email.mime.multipart import MIMEMultipart

loadout = os.getloadavg()  #this returns a tuple (0.34, 0.1, 0.07)

if loadout[1] > 0:

    msg = MIMEMultipart()  #msg is instance obj of mimemultipart

    msg['From'] = "nagios@localhost"  # this is seen as from: in receiving end

    toaddr="urgen@gmail.com"    #actual receiving address

    server = smtplib.SMTP('localhost')

    server.set_debuglevel(True)  #for verbose output while testing

    server.sendmail(fromaddr,toaddr,text)
