* Fix the french used in the email documentation The french used in one of the example was either machine translated a while ago or written by someone who does not speak french. Fixed it by using grammatically correct french.

:mod:`email`: Examples
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
Here are a few examples of how to use the :mod:`email` package to read, write,
|
|
and send simple email messages, as well as more complex MIME messages.
|
|
|
|
First, let's see how to create and send a simple text message (both the
|
|
text content and the addresses may contain unicode characters):
|
|
|
|
.. literalinclude:: ../includes/email-simple.py
|
|
|
|
|
|
Parsing :rfc:`822` headers can easily be done by the using the classes
|
|
from the :mod:`~email.parser` module:
|
|
|
|
.. literalinclude:: ../includes/email-headers.py
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here's an example of how to send a MIME message containing a bunch of family
|
|
pictures that may be residing in a directory:
|
|
|
|
.. literalinclude:: ../includes/email-mime.py
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here's an example of how to send the entire contents of a directory as an email
|
|
message: [1]_
|
|
|
|
.. literalinclude:: ../includes/email-dir.py
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here's an example of how to unpack a MIME message like the one
|
|
above, into a directory of files:
|
|
|
|
.. literalinclude:: ../includes/email-unpack.py
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here's an example of how to create an HTML message with an alternative plain
|
|
text version. To make things a bit more interesting, we include a related
|
|
image in the html part, and we save a copy of what we are going to send to
|
|
disk, as well as sending it.
|
|
|
|
.. literalinclude:: ../includes/email-alternative.py
|
|
|
|
|
|
If we were sent the message from the last example, here is one way we could
|
|
process it:
|
|
|
|
.. literalinclude:: ../includes/email-read-alternative.py
|
|
|
|
Up to the prompt, the output from the above is:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: none
|
