来自@David的很棒的回答，这里是Python 3没有通用的try-除了:

def send_email(user, password, recipient, subject, body):

    gmail_user = user
    gmail_pwd = password
    FROM = user
    TO = recipient if type(recipient) is list else [recipient]
    SUBJECT = subject
    TEXT = body

    # Prepare actual message
    message = """From: %s\nTo: %s\nSubject: %s\n\n%s
    """ % (FROM, ", ".join(TO), SUBJECT, TEXT)

    server = smtplib.SMTP("smtp.gmail.com", 587)
    server.ehlo()
    server.starttls()
    server.login(gmail_user, gmail_pwd)
    server.sendmail(FROM, TO, message)
    server.close()

这是

创建Gmail APP密码!

创建之后，创建一个名为sendgmail.py的文件

然后添加以下代码:

try:
    server = smtplib.SMTP_SSL('smtp.gmail.com', 465)
    server.ehlo()
    server.login(gmail_user, gmail_app_password)
    server.sendmail(sent_from, sent_to, email_text)
    server.close()

    print('Email sent!')
except Exception as exception:
    print("Error: %s!\n\n" % exception)

所以，如果你成功了，你会看到这样的图像:

我通过给自己和自己发送电子邮件进行测试。

注意:我在我的帐户上启用了两步验证。应用程序密码与此工作!(对于gmail SMTP设置，您必须访问https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/185833?hl=en并遵循以下步骤) 此设置对于启用了两步验证的帐户不可用。这样的帐户需要特定于应用程序的密码来访问不太安全的应用程序。

澄清

导航到https://myaccount.google.com/apppasswords，并创建一个APP密码如上所述。

你需要在直接运行到STARTTLS之前说EHLO:

server = smtplib.SMTP('smtp.gmail.com:587')
server.ehlo()
server.starttls()

此外，您应该真正创建From:、To:和Subject:消息头，用空行与消息体分隔，并使用CRLF作为EOL标记。

E.g.

msg = "\r\n".join([
  "From: user_me@gmail.com",
  "To: user_you@gmail.com",
  "Subject: Just a message",
  "",
  "Why, oh why"
  ])

注意:

为了做到这一点，你需要在gmail帐户配置中启用“允许不太安全的应用程序”选项。否则，当gmail检测到一个非谷歌应用程序试图登录你的帐户时，你会得到一个“关键安全警报”。

现在有一个gmail API，它可以让你通过REST发送电子邮件，阅读电子邮件和创建草稿。 与SMTP调用不同，它是非阻塞的，这对于在请求线程中发送电子邮件的基于线程的web服务器(如python web服务器)来说是一件好事。这个API也非常强大。

当然，电子邮件应该交给一个非web服务器队列，但有选择是很好的。

如果您在域上拥有谷歌应用程序管理员权限，则最容易设置，因为这样您就可以向您的客户端授予全面权限。否则，您必须摆弄OAuth身份验证和权限。

下面是一个要点:

https://gist.github.com/timrichardson/1154e29174926e462b7a

下面是一个Gmail API的例子。虽然比较复杂，但这是我发现在2019年唯一有效的方法。这个例子是从以下例子中获取并修改的:

https://developers.google.com/gmail/api/guides/sending

你需要通过谷歌的网站创建一个API接口的项目。接下来，你需要为你的应用程序启用GMAIL API。创建凭证，然后下载这些凭证，保存为credentials.json。
