smptlib and email modules giving error on import and pip in python-CodePudding

I was working with smtplib module in python and it suddenly started giving NameError I am getting the following error when importing smtblib or email in python:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/Desktop/outlook_email.py", line 25, in <module>
    import smtplib
  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/smtplib.py", line 48, in <module>
    import email.message
  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/email/message.py", line 945, in <module>
    class MIMEPart(Message):
NameError: name 'Message' is not defined

I am also getting the same error while running any pip command. For ex. pip install, pip uninstall, pip freeze all commands give the same error

I am also getting the same error while running any python script.

What can be the solution for this. Thanks in advance.

I just reinstalled my python and upgraded to a latest 9.3 version which seemed to solve the issue.
