paulc / gmail-sender Goto Github PK

Hi, I installed the gmail package via pip install gmail.

The CLI for this works, however when I go to run the basic commands
import gmail

gmail = GMail('A.User[email protected]','')
msg = Message('Test Message',to='[email protected]',text='Test')
gmail.send(msg)

I get an error message stating that 'GMail' is not found. I went to the command line using python3 and it pulled up

when I do

import gmail
it recognizes gmail, I tested this by doing
xyz
and got an error message.

However when I used the GMail(), Message() or Send() it gives me an error saying it is not defined. When I put the import gmail in my IDE (VSCode) it states that it's an unresolved import.

I went back and hit pip3 install gmail just to be certain and it said the requirement is already fulfilled.

Thanks!

Tried sending an email with this snippet:

gmail = GMail('Me <[email protected]>', 'password')
msg = Message('Test Message', to='Me <[email protected]>', text='Hello')
gmail.send(msg)

Delivery failed but an error with <bytes>.startswith masks the actual exception. This is the traceback that comes up:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./send_email.py", line 8, in <module>
    gmail.send(msg)

    if e.smtp_error.startswith("5.7.14"):

gmail = GMail('A.User [email protected]','password')
>>> msg = Message('Test Message',to='xyz [email protected]',text='Hello')
>>> gmail.send(msg)

"""

Basically object cleanup is having this exception:

Exception ignored in: <bound method GMail.__del__ of <gmail.gmail.GMail object at 0x7fc08e2c1fd0>>
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/gmail/gmail.py", line 137, in __del__

    self.send(str)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.5/smtplib.py", line 356, in send
    raise SMTPServerDisconnected('Server not connected')
smtplib.SMTPServerDisconnected: Server not connected

The code snippet is fairly simple:

...
msg = Message('Something', to=recipients)
...
GMail(user, password).send(msg)

The message is getting sent properly.

I'm running this on a fresh Python 3.7 install. I've read somewhere that exceptions is a module from python 2. However, I haven't found a fix yet. Does someone know a solution?

When I run
import gmail
I get:

Hello

thanks for writing such useful library

I have faced a problem when using this library on

• Windows10
• Python2.7
• Japanese environment
• sending a mail from gmail.cli
• pass multibyte (cp932) string to parameter attachment

reproduction steps below:

In Python2.7

Hello

first thanks for porting this lib to python 3.

I have some trouble to use it on python 3 because with this script :

from gmail import GMail,Message

gmail = GMail(bytes(u"'A.User <"+gmail_user+">'", 'utf-8'), bytes(u"'"+gmail_password+"'", 'utf-8'))
msg = Message(bytes(u"'"+object+"'"), to=bytes(u"'xyz <"+toaddr+">'"), text=bytes(u"'"+message+"'"))
gmail.send(msg)

it keeps returning me this result :

Thank you for your help^^

Hi,

When I try to use your gmail library with my email address and a generated app password for my gmail account, I receive an error: Username and Password not accepted. I followed your reference material for setting up a generated password with Gmail and passed this into the Gmail instance. I'm using python version 2.7.

thanks.
