It depends on who sends the email. If an action triggered by a web
request does, then the code goes in the action. If you want a
backrgound script to send the emails then you put the code in
script.py and run it with
web2py.py -S yourapp -M -R /path/to/your/script.py
the context is dictionary with the variable you want to be visible.
For example
context=dict(name="Annet")
message=parse_template('email.txt',path=path,context=context)
--- email.txt ----
Dear {{=name}},
how are you today?
--- end -----
