I've never used smtplib nor MimeWriter, and it appears MimeWriter 
isn't necessary at all. Try this one, as a test (fill in the obvious
ones):

----------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/python

import smtplib

your_email_address = '____'
your_server = '127.0.0.1'

test_message = '''From: %s\r
To: %s\r
Subject: ILOVEYOU\r
MIME-Version: 1.0\r
Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit\r
Content-Disposition: inline\r
\r
\r
<html>\r
<body>\r
<h1>Hello %s</h1>\r
</body>\r
</html>\r
''' % (your_email_address, your_email_address, your_email_address)

con = smtplib.SMTP(your_server)
con.sendmail('From: %s' % your_email_address, 
             'To: %s' % your_email_address, 
              test_message)
con.quit()
