I want to send an E-Mail when the logging module logs a message above
a certain level (probably for ERROR and CRITICAL messages only).
I.e. I want some sort of hook that will be called when these messages
are logged (I can do the sendmail bit OK, I've got code that does that).

I'm not sure this explains perfectly what you're gonna need to do, but
I hope it gets you in the ballpark.
Thank you, but yes I agree it's not terribly informative is it.
However I think I understand what I need to do. I currently have a
function to set up my logging:-
def initLog(name):
log = logging.getLogger(name)
log.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
f = logging.handlers.RotatingFileHandler(/home/chris/tmp/mail.log,
'a', 100, 4)
f.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
formatter = logging.Formatter('%(asctime)s - %(name)s - %(levelname)s -
%(message)s')
f.setFormatter(formatter)
log.addHandler(f)
return log
As I understand it I just add another line like the 'f =' line but
using the SMTPHandler and then set an appropriate level for that
handler (and formatting).
