Problem with sending text file as an attachment using this Gmail OAuth script
#6
You will need to do something like this, to read line by line:

if main_type == 'text':
       print("text")
       output_file = ""
       with open(attached_file, 'r') as fp:  # 'rb' will send this error: 'bytes' object has no attribute 'encode'
           while True:
               cur_line = fp.readline()
               if cur_line == '':
                   break

               output_file += cur_line.replace('\n', '\r\n')

       attachement = MIMEText(output_file, _subtype=sub_type)
Or try this, see if it works:

if main_type == 'text':
       print("text")
       temp = open(attached_file, 'r')  # 'rb' will send this error: 'bytes' object has no attribute 'encode'
       attachement = MIMEText(temp.read().replace('\n', '\r\n'), _subtype=sub_type)
       temp.close()
