Use the subprocess module. Pipe to:

  /usr/sbin/sendmail -oi addr1 addr2 ...

If the exit code is 0, mail dispatched.

This is a trivial function; you don't need a library for this.

Both "sendmail" and "postfix" (and "qmail" et al) provide a "sendmail"
executable for exactly this purpose.

The smtplib is for making arbitrary SMTP operations, thus a whole
module.  Sendmail does all that for you, you only need to deliver
the message to it and ensure it was accepted.
