gmail ----- The 'gmail' module provides a simple wrapper around the smtplib/email modules to provide an easy programmatic interface for sending email using the GMail SMTP service. The module provides the following classes: GMail - Basic interface to GMail SMTP service GMailWorker - Background worker to send messages asynchronously (uses multiprocessing module) GMailHandler - GMail handler for logging framework Message - Wrapper around email.Message class simplifying creation of email message objects The module also provides a cli interface to send email if run directly (python -mgmail.cli) Basic usage: >>> gmail = GMail('A.User <user@gmail.com>','password') >>> msg = Message('Test Message',to='xyz <xyz@xyz.com>',text='Hello') >>> gmail.send(msg) Note: You will need to setup an application-specific password rather than using your account-password - see: https://support.google.com/mail/?p=InvalidSecondFactor https://security.google.com/settings/security/apppasswords The Message class also provides support to simply generate html email and add attachments. >>> msg = Message('Test Message',to='xyz@xyz.com',text="Hello",html="<b>Hello</b>",attachments=['img.jpg']) In Python3 messages will be unicode (utf8) encoded by default unless the text is passed a a bytes object (the inverse is true in Python 2) For examples of use see cli.py and test_gmail.py/test_message.py Changelog: * 0.1 2012-10-17 Initial Release * 0.2 2012-10-18 Restructure module * 0.3 2012-12-28 Fix logging/worker * 0.3.1 2012-12-28 CLI attachment mime-type fix * 0.4 2013-08-24 Allow user to specify 'From' and 'Reply-To' header by passing 'sender' (Pull from from https://github.com/Kami - thanks) * 0.5 2014-02-12 Move _gmail_worker to module function to fix multiprocessor problem on win32 (Fix from gabriel.nevarez@gmail.com - thanks) * 0.6.1 2016-09-25 Python 3 support * 0.6.2 2016-12-12 Fix to Python 3 exception handling * 0.6.3 2017-08-07 Try to handle non-ascii filenames Fix for exception on `__del__` Method Invocation (thanks to https://github.com/theonewolf for fix/pull request) License: * BSD Author: * Paul Chakravarti (paul.chakravarti@gmail.com)
