I'm trying to create two functions, one that takes a screenshot and then calls the other function that should send an email with the screenshot attached. Both of them work if they're separated, but when I try to piece them together a huge error message pops up.
I tried putting it in the same block of code, separating them in two functions, different ways of calling the function... Nothing seems to work
import smtplib
from email import encoders
from email.mime.base import MIMEBase
from email.mime.multipart import MIMEMultipart
from email.mime.text import MIMEText
from email.mime.image import MIMEImage
import os.path
def enviar_email():
email = 'email'
password = 'password'
subject = 'This is the subject'
message = 'This is my message'
file_location = 'ss1.jpg'
msg = MIMEMultipart()
msg['From'] = email
msg['To'] = email
msg['Subject'] = subject
msg.attach(MIMEText(message, 'plain'))
# Setup the attachment
filename = os.path.basename(file_location)
attachment = open(file_location, "rb").read()
image = MIMEImage(attachment, name=filename)
msg.attach(image)
# Attach the attachment to the MIMEMultipart object
# msg.attach(part)
server = smtplib.SMTP('smtp.gmail.com', 587)
server.starttls()
server.login(email, password)
text = msg.as_string()
server.sendmail(email, email, text)
server.quit()
def main():
imagem = ImageGrab.grab()
imagem.save('ss1.jpg', 'jpeg')
enviar_email()
main()

Error I get:
RuntimeError:
An attempt has been made to start a new process before the
current process has finished its bootstrapping phase.
This probably means that you are not using fork to start your
child processes and you have forgotten to use the proper idiom
in the main module:
if __name__ == '__main__':
freeze_support()
...
The "freeze_support()" line can be omitted if the program
is not going to be frozen to produce an executable.
Traceback (most recent call last):
