You should use the version of alarm.py that comes with weeWX. It's in the
directory 'examples'. It can also be downloaded here
.

I have used Python interactive with a few line of code and tested that 
login work.

I am not following you when you say "a new syslog message just 2 code lines
after the evaluated True messages." Does that mean you have something like
this:

# Log it
syslog.syslog(syslog.LOG_INFO, "alarm: Alarm expression \"%s\"
evaluated True at %s" % (self.expression, t_str))

# Form the message text:
msg_text = "Alarm expression \"%s\" evaluated True at
%s\nRecord:\n%s" % (self.expression, t_str, str(rec))
# Convert to MIME:
msg = MIMEText(msg_text)

syslog.syslog(syslog.LOG_INFO, "New logging message")

# Fill in MIME headers:
msg['Subject'] = self.SUBJECT
msg['From']= self.FROM
msg['To']  = ','.join(self.TO)


If so, and you got the expected email message, then I am totally mystified
as to why the other log messages did not appear.
