"message" here is a string literal

should be fp.close()

message here is a variable. The variable named message has not previously 
had a value assigned to it.
$s should be %s

If you want the subject to be the filename, then what you need to do is:

1) assign the filename to some variable
2) open the file using the variable that contains the filename
3) use the variable that contains the filename to generate the subject

eg (assuming suitable imports etc) and the message is in a text file 
called message.txt:
 
msgfile = "message.txt"
fp = open( msgfile, "r" )
msg = MIMEText(fp.read())
fp.close()
msg['Subject']  = 'The contents of %s' % msgfile
