output in console

the crux of problem getting values of variables when first create button, @ point to, subject , message blank.

the proper way code gui values when need them, , not before. eliminates need lambda; lambda necessary , makes code harder write, harder understand, , harder modify.

also, advice not use stringvars, , modify testinfo fetch data @ time needs it. use of stringvar 1 more object need keep track of, , unnecessary unless you're making use of special features of objects (which you're not).

def testinfo():     reciever = to_entry.get()     email = email_entry.get()     password = password_entry.get()     sender = email_entry.get()     message = message_entry.get()     subject = subject_entry.get()      print("email : " + email)     print("password : " + password)     print("from : " + sender)     print("to : " + reciever)     print("message : " + message)     print("subject : " + subject)  ... send_button = tkinter.button(..., command=testinfo)
