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:

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。

import pickle
import os.path
from googleapiclient.discovery import build
from google_auth_oauthlib.flow import InstalledAppFlow
from google.auth.transport.requests import Request

from email.mime.text import MIMEText
import base64

#pip install --upgrade google-api-python-client google-auth-httplib2 google-auth-oauthlib

# If modifying these scopes, delete the file token.pickle.
SCOPES = ['https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.readonly', 'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.send']

def create_message(sender, to, subject, msg):
    message = MIMEText(msg)
    message['to'] = to
    message['from'] = sender
    message['subject'] = subject

    # Base 64 encode
    b64_bytes = base64.urlsafe_b64encode(message.as_bytes())
    b64_string = b64_bytes.decode()
    return {'raw': b64_string}
    #return {'raw': base64.urlsafe_b64encode(message.as_string())}

def send_message(service, user_id, message):
    #try:
    message = (service.users().messages().send(userId=user_id, body=message).execute())
    print( 'Message Id: %s' % message['id'] )
    return message
    #except errors.HttpError, error:print( 'An error occurred: %s' % error )

def main():
    """Shows basic usage of the Gmail API.
    Lists the user's Gmail labels.
    """
    creds = None
    # The file token.pickle stores the user's access and refresh tokens, and is
    # created automatically when the authorization flow completes for the first
    # time.
    if os.path.exists('token.pickle'):
        with open('token.pickle', 'rb') as token:
            creds = pickle.load(token)
    # If there are no (valid) credentials available, let the user log in.
    if not creds or not creds.valid:
        if creds and creds.expired and creds.refresh_token:
            creds.refresh(Request())
        else:
            flow = InstalledAppFlow.from_client_secrets_file(
                'credentials.json', SCOPES)
            creds = flow.run_local_server(port=0)
        # Save the credentials for the next run
        with open('token.pickle', 'wb') as token:
            pickle.dump(creds, token)

    service = build('gmail', 'v1', credentials=creds)

    # Example read operation
    results = service.users().labels().list(userId='me').execute()
    labels = results.get('labels', [])

    if not labels:
        print('No labels found.')
    else:
        print('Labels:')
    for label in labels:
        print(label['name'])

    # Example write
    msg = create_message("from@gmail.com", "to@gmail.com", "Subject", "Msg")
    send_message( service, 'me', msg)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

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”。

import smtplib
server = smtplib.SMTP('smtp.gmail.com', 587)
server.ehlo()
server.starttls()
server.login("fromaddress", "password")
msg = "HI!"
server.sendmail("fromaddress", "receiveraddress", msg)
server.quit()

    import smtplib

    fromadd='from@gmail.com'
    toadd='send@gmail.com'

    msg='''hi,how r u'''
    username='abc@gmail.com'
    passwd='password'

    try:
        server = smtplib.SMTP('smtp.gmail.com:587')
        server.ehlo()
        server.starttls()
        server.login(username,passwd)

        server.sendmail(fromadd,toadd,msg)
        print("Mail Send Successfully")
        server.quit()

   except:
        print("Error:unable to send mail")
