Hi all,
I have a python script that works out & emails my employer with parts that I
have used. It has been great for 11ish months, now all my mail is classed as
spam & junked :(
Apparently the reason for it being junked is ...
'No subject' and 'No Sender'
I set up a small test script to isolate the problem using the core of the
email code ...
#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: iso8859_1 -*-
from smtplib import SMTP
from time import sleep, strftime
from datetime import datetime
import sys
email_SMTP = 'mail.pusspaws.net'
email_addr = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
def email_test():
for trys in xrange(10):
try:
mail_server = SMTP(email_SMTP)
mail_server.login('XXXX', 'XXXX')
subject = 'Test Email'
from_ = 'Dave Selby<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>'
to = email_addr
return_path = email_addr
blog="""Hi,\n\nThis is just a test"""
msg = mail_headers(subject, from_, to, return_path)
+'\r\n\r\n'+blog
mail_server.sendmail(subject , email_addr, msg)
mail_server.quit()
# If we get to here, all is well, drop out of the loop
break
except:
print 'Mailing error ... Re-trying ... '+str(trys+1)+' of 10\n'
sleep(300)
if trys==9:
raise 'Mail Failure\n'+str(sys.exc_type)+'\n'+str(sys.exc_value)
def mail_headers(subject, from_, to, return_path):
"""
Generate a formatted mail header string
"""
header = 'Return-Path: ' + return_path
header = header + '\r\nFrom: ' + from_
header = header + '\r\nReply-To: ' + return_path
header = header + '\r\nTo: ' + to
header = header + '\r\nSubject: '+subject
now=datetime.now()
day = now.strftime('%a')
date = now.strftime('%d %b %Y %X')
header = header + '\r\nDate : ' + day + ', ' + date + ' -0000\r\n'
return (header)
email_test()
>From this I receive the following ....

Hi,
This is just a test
I cannot seem to set the top 'Return-path' correctly, any ideas how I do
this ? also I have a sender so I am unsure why the spam filter picked this
out.
Any suggestions
Cheers
dave
