Basado en este ejemplo hice la siguiente función:
import smtplib
from email.mime.multipart import MIMEMultipart
from email.mime.text import MIMEText
def send_email(host, port, user, pwd, recipients, subject, body, html=None, from_=None):
""" copied and adapted from
/programming/10147455/how-to-send-an-email-with-gmail-as-provider-using-python#12424439
returns None if all ok, but if problem then returns exception object
"""
PORT_LIST = (25, 587, 465)
FROM = from_ if from_ else user
TO = recipients if isinstance(recipients, (list, tuple)) else [recipients]
SUBJECT = subject
TEXT = body.encode("utf8") if isinstance(body, unicode) else body
HTML = html.encode("utf8") if isinstance(html, unicode) else html
if not html:
# Prepare actual message
message = """From: %s\nTo: %s\nSubject: %s\n\n%s
""" % (FROM, ", ".join(TO), SUBJECT, TEXT)
else:
# /programming/882712/sending-html-email-using-python#882770
msg = MIMEMultipart('alternative')
msg['Subject'] = SUBJECT
msg['From'] = FROM
msg['To'] = ", ".join(TO)
# Record the MIME types of both parts - text/plain and text/html.
# utf-8 -> /programming/5910104/python-how-to-send-utf-8-e-mail#5910530
part1 = MIMEText(TEXT, 'plain', "utf-8")
part2 = MIMEText(HTML, 'html', "utf-8")
# Attach parts into message container.
# According to RFC 2046, the last part of a multipart message, in this case
# the HTML message, is best and preferred.
msg.attach(part1)
msg.attach(part2)
message = msg.as_string()
try:
if port not in PORT_LIST:
raise Exception("Port %s not one of %s" % (port, PORT_LIST))
if port in (465,):
server = smtplib.SMTP_SSL(host, port)
else:
server = smtplib.SMTP(host, port)
# optional
server.ehlo()
if port in (587,):
server.starttls()
server.login(user, pwd)
server.sendmail(FROM, TO, message)
server.close()
# logger.info("SENT_EMAIL to %s: %s" % (recipients, subject))
except Exception, ex:
return ex
return None
si solo pasa body
, se enviará un correo de texto sin formato, pero si pasa un html
argumento junto con un body
argumento, se enviará un correo electrónico html (con respaldo al contenido de texto para los clientes de correo electrónico que no admiten los tipos html / mime).
Uso de ejemplo:
ex = send_email(
host = 'smtp.gmail.com'
#, port = 465 # OK
, port = 587 #OK
, user = "xxx@gmail.com"
, pwd = "xxx"
, from_ = 'xxx@gmail.com'
, recipients = ['yyy@gmail.com']
, subject = "Test from python"
, body = "Test from python - body"
)
if ex:
print("Mail sending failed: %s" % ex)
else:
print("OK - mail sent"
Por cierto. Si desea utilizar gmail como servidor SMTP de prueba o producción, habilite el acceso temporal o permanente a aplicaciones menos seguras:
