You can use the web2py template language to generate emails.
from gluon.template import parse_template
from gluon.tool import Mail
mail=Mail
mail.settings.server='smtp.gmail.com:
587'
mail.settings.sender='y...@somewhere.com'
mail.settings.login=None or
'username:password'
path=os.path.join(request.folder,"views")
context=dict(a=1,b=2,c=3,etc="etc")
message=parse_template('file.html',path=path,context=context)
mail.send(to=['y...@whatever.com'],subject='None',message=message)
