Usage:
>>> import emailpy >>> sent = emailpy.sendmail("fromemail@gmail.com", "fromemail_password", toemails = ["toemail1@gmail.com", "toemail2@gmail.com") subject = 'Subject', body = 'Body', attachments = ['file.txt', 'picture.png']) >>> # send an email from >>> # "fromemail@gmail.com" and password "fromemail_password" to >>> # "toemail1@gmail.com" and "toemail2@gmail.com" with subject >>> # "Subject" and body "Body" and retreive the message into the variable >>> # "sent". >>> data = emailpy.readmail("toemail1@gmail.com", "toemail1_password") # read >>> # email "toemail1@gmail.com" with password "toemail1_password" >>> data = data[0] # get first email from EmailMessageList object >>> data.body # "Body" >>> data.subject # "Subject" >>> data.html # "Body" >>> data.sender # "fromemail@gmail.com" >>> data.recvers # ["toemail1@gmail.com", "toemail2@gmail.com"] >>> data.show() # >>> data.attachments # >> # "picture.png"]> >>> data.attachments.download() # save attached files to computer >>> data.attachments.show() # show attached files >>> # WARNING: when using data.attachments.show(), you must first call >>> # data.attachments.download() >>> data.is_attachment # True >>> data.delete() # delete email >>> emailpy.sendmailobj(sent, attachments = ['file2.txt']) # send the sent >>> # variable as an email, but replacing the attachments list with >>> # ['file2.txt']. >>> emailpy.forward(data, 'forwardtome@yahoo.com', body = 'hi') # forward >>> # the read email to "forwardtome@yahoo.com", but replacing the body >>> # with "hi". NOTE that this only works on read emails. So, you cannot >>> # use the emailpy.forward() method on sent or forwarded emails.
