It accepts markdown content, converts it to HTML using markdown, inlines CSS styles using premailer, and handles SMTP connection and message sending in a few method calls instead of the dozen or more lines required by the standard library.\n\nThe package provides three main patterns: quick_email for one-off sends, a message builder for constructing emails line-by-line (useful in monitoring scripts), and deferred server binding for cases where SMTP details are not known upfront. It is abandoned as of 2019, with no updates since its 0.1.0 release in 2017, and targets only Python 2.6\u20133.5.","worth_installing":"No. The package is abandoned (last commit 2019-07-23) and targets only Python 2.6\u20133.5, all end-of-life. Its dependencies (markdown, premailer) may have drifted. Modern Python projects should use actively maintained alternatives like Flask-Mail, django-anymail, or direct SMTP with email.mime for better compatibility, security updates, and support. Install only if you are locked into legacy Python and cannot upgrade."},"id":"email-to","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/email-to","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/email-to.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/email-to/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2017-10-01","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"email-to","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Simplyify sending HTML emails"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":480902,"position":6429,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.1.0"}
