A lightweight, scalable SMTP client for sending email in MicroPython.
A bare minimal approach
import umail
smtp = umail.SMTP('smtp.gmail.com', 587, username='[email protected]', password='mypassword')
smtp.to('[email protected]')
smtp.send("This is an example.")
smtp.quit()
-
umail.SMTP(host, port, [ssl, username, password])
- host - smtp server
- port - server's port number
- ssl - set
True
when SSL is required by the server - username - my username/email to the server
- password - my password
-
SMTP.login(username, password)
If you did not login when intializing the server, do it here! -
SMTP.to(addrs, mail_from)
- addrs - Recipient's email address. If multiple recipents, use a list, eg.
['[email protected]', '[email protected]']
- mail_from - manually specify the MAIL FROM address, default value is your smtp username. example
- addrs - Recipient's email address. If multiple recipents, use a list, eg.
-
SMTP.write(content)
To send a long email or an email that contains large attachments, you will most likely exceed the memory limit of your MCU.
Use this function to break up your email into smaller chunks.
Each call towrite()
will cause the currentcontent
to be sent to the server so you can load the next chunk. -
SMTP.send([content])
Finish writing the email.
Make the SMTP server to actually send your email to the recipent address. -
SMTP.quit()
Close the connection to the server
