outgoing provides a common interface to multiple different e-mail sending
methods (SMTP, sendmail, mbox, etc.). Just construct a sender from a
configuration file or object, pass it an EmailMessage instance, and let the
magical internet daemons take care of the rest.
outgoing itself provides support for only basic sending methods; additional
methods are provided by extension packages.
See the documentation for more
information.

Installation
outgoing requires Python 3.8 or higher. Just use pip for Python 3 (You have pip, right?) to install
outgoing and its dependencies:
python3 -m pip install outgoing

Examples
A sample configuration file:
[outgoing]
method = "smtp"
host = "mx.example.com"
ssl = "starttls"
username = "myname"
password = { file = "~/secrets/smtp-password" }
Sending an e-mail based on a configuration file:
from email.message import EmailMessage
import outgoing

# Construct an EmailMessage object the standard Python way:
msg = EmailMessage()
msg["Subject"] = "Meet me"
msg["To"] = "my.beloved@love.love"
msg["From"] = "me@here.qq"
msg.set_content(
"Oh my beloved!\n"
"\n"
"Wilt thou dine with me on the morrow?\n"
"\n"
"We're having hot pockets.\n"
"\n"
"Love, Me\n"
)

# Construct a sender object based on the default config file (assuming it's
# populated)
with outgoing.from_config_file() as sender:
# Now send that letter!
sender.send(msg)
As an alternative to using a configuration file, you can specify an explicit
configuration by passing the configuration structure to the
outgoing.from_dict() method, like so:
from email.message import EmailMessage
import outgoing

# Construct an EmailMessage object using the eletter library
# <https://github.com/jwodder/eletter>:
from eletter import compose

msg1 = compose(
subject="No.",
to=["me@here.qq"],
from_="my.beloved@love.love",
text=(
"Hot pockets? Thou disgusteth me.\n"
"\n"
"Pineapple pizza or RIOT.\n"
),
)

msg2 = compose(
subject="I'd like to place an order.",
to=["pete@za.aa"],
from_="my.beloved@love.love",
text="I need the usual. Twelve Hawaiian Abominations to go, please.\n",
)

SENDING_CONFIG = {
"method": "smtp",
"host": "smtp.love.love",
"username": "my.beloved",
"password": {"env": "SMTP_PASSWORD"},
"ssl": "starttls",
}

with outgoing.from_dict(SENDING_CONFIG) as sender:
sender.send(msg1)
sender.send(msg2)
