Utility factory for sending emails easily.
Method __init__
Method build​Protocol Create an instance of a subclass of Protocol.
Method client​Connection​Failed Called when a connection has failed to connect.
Method client​Connection​Lost Called when an established connection is lost.
Instance Variable current​Protocol The current running protocol returned by buildProtocol.
Instance Variable file Undocumented
Instance Variable from​Email Undocumented
Instance Variable n​Emails Undocumented
Instance Variable result Undocumented
Instance Variable retries Undocumented
Instance Variable send​Finished When the value is set to True, it means the message has been sent or there has been an unrecoverable error or the sending has been cancelled. The default value is False.
Instance Variable timeout Undocumented
Instance Variable to​Email Undocumented
Method _process​Connection​Error Undocumented
Method _remove​Deferred Undocumented
Method _remove​Protocol Remove the protocol created in buildProtocol.

Inherited from ClientFactory:

Method started​Connecting Called when a connection has been started.

Inherited from Factory (via ClientFactory):

Class Method for​Protocol Create a factory for the given protocol.
Method do​Start Make sure startFactory is called.
Method do​Stop Make sure stopFactory is called.
Method log​Prefix Describe this factory for log messages.
Method start​Factory This will be called before I begin listening on a Port or Connector.
Method stop​Factory This will be called before I stop listening on all Ports/Connectors.
Class Variable noisy Undocumented
Class Variable protocol Undocumented
Instance Variable num​Ports Undocumented
def __init__(self, fromEmail, toEmail, file, deferred, retries=5, timeout=None): (source)
Parameters
from​EmailThe RFC 2821 address from which to send this message.
to​EmailA sequence of RFC 2821 addresses to which to send this message.
fileA file-like object containing the message to send.
deferred:defer.DeferredA Deferred to callback or errback when sending of this message completes.
retriesThe number of times to retry delivery of this message.
timeoutPeriod, in seconds, for which to wait for server responses, or None to wait forever.
def buildProtocol(self, addr): (source)

Create an instance of a subclass of Protocol.

The returned instance will handle input on an incoming server connection, and an attribute "factory" pointing to the creating factory.

Alternatively, None may be returned to immediately close the new connection.

Override this method to alter how Protocol instances get created.

Parameters
addran object implementing twisted.internet.interfaces.IAddress
def clientConnectionFailed(self, connector, err): (source)

Called when a connection has failed to connect.

It may be useful to call connector.connect() - this will reconnect.

Parameters
connectorUndocumented
errUndocumented
reason:twisted.python.failure.FailureUndocumented
def clientConnectionLost(self, connector, err): (source)

Called when an established connection is lost.

It may be useful to call connector.connect() - this will reconnect.
