sage: email?
Type: function
Base Class: <type 'function'>
String Form: <function email at 0x10a2336e0>
Namespace: Interactive
File: /Applications/sage/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/
sagenb/notebook/sage_email.py
Definition: email(to, subject, body='', from_address=None,
verbose=True, block=False, kill_on_exit=False)
Docstring:
Send an email message.
INPUT:
to -- string; address of recipient
subject -- string; subject of the email
body -- string (default: ''); body of the email
from_address -- string (default: usern...@hostname);
address
email will appear to be from
verbose -- whether to print status information when
the email is sent
block -- bool (default: False); if True this
function doesn't
return until the email is actually sent.
if
False, the email gets sent in a background
thread.
kill_on_exit -- bool (default: False): if True, guarantee
that
the sending mail subprocess is killed
when you
exit sage, even if it failed to send the
message. If False, then the subprocess
might
keep running for a while. This should
never
be a problem, but might be useful for
certain
users.
EXAMPLES::
sage: email('xxxsageu...@gmail.com', 'The calculation
finished!') # not tested
Child process ... is sending email to xxxsageu...@gmail.com
NOTE: This function does not require configuring an email
server
or anything else at all, since Sage already includes by
default a sophisticated email server (which is part of
Twisted).
