Tools for constructing and sending emails
Project description
mailtools
Writing a web application? Want to send some emails from it? Mailtools can help!
Simple API for sending plain text messages, HTML and messages with attachments.
ThreadedMailer sends emails in the background and returns control to your application immediately, even when talking to slow remote servers.
Temporary sending failures are automatically retried.
Running your application in test mode? The RedirectMessages wrapper routes emails to a test address and not to live email addresses.
Usage
Creating a simple SMTP mailer:
from mailtools import SMTPMailer
mailer = SMTPMailer('127.0.0.1')
This mailer will block until messages are sent and won’t retry failures. Use ThreadedMailer to fix this:
mailer = ThreadedMailer(SMTPMailer('127.0.0.1'))
Sending a plain text message:
message = u'This is a plain text message'
mailer.send_plain(
u'sender@example.com',
[u'recipient@example.com'],
u'hi',
message
)
Sending an HTML message:
message = u'<html><body>Look! HTML!</body></html>'
mailer.send_html(
u'sender@example.com',
[u'recipient@example.com'],
u'hi',
message
)
Adding attachments:
message = u'index.rst is attached to this message'
mailer.send_plain(
u'sender@example.com',
[u'recipient@example.com'],
u'hi',
message,
attachments=['index.rst']
)
