How to send email with CC

[babvin]

Getting error when I add CC while sending emails.

TypeError: send() got an unexpected keyword argument 'cc'

If you want recipient to receive email, you should include that email in to parameter of send

If you want recipient's email visible in email headers, you can use cc parameter of Message constructor.

Many Thanks, Sergey, we'll try and revert.

Unable send email to multiple recipients when passed as arguments. I tried several ways but it takes only 1 email address

import emails
import argparse

def check_arg(args=None):

    parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description='Script to send a  Report through Email')

    parser.add_argument('-s', '--smtpServer',
                        help='smtp server ip',
                        required='True')

    parser.add_argument('-r', '--mailRecipient',
                        help='mail recipient, enter "," seperated',
                        required='True'
                        )

    results = parser.parse_args(args)

    return (results.smtpServer, results.mailRecipient)

#
smtphost, to = check_arg()
#Generate Email
message = emails.html(html="<p>Hi<br>Please find attached  Report. To see all previously run report archives, use this link >>> http://report/report/",
                       subject=" Report " ,
                       mail_from=('vmax_snapshots_report'))

#message.attach(data=open(reppath+'report_%s.xlsx'%date, 'rb'), filename='report_%s.xlsx'%date)

#logger.info('Email Message Body \n {}'.format(message))

#Send Message
#SMTP IP is hard coded since the file collation and sending email is done by the Master node

print(to)
print(type(to))
r = message.send(to=[to], smtp={'host': smtphost, 'timeout': 5})
assert r.status_code == 250

[rda@server ~]$ python3.6 email_test.py -s 5.5.5.5 -r 'vinay.umesh@abcd.com','dhilen.mamtora@abcd.com' vinay.umesh@abcd.com,dhilen.mamtora@abcd.com <class 'str'> [rda@server ~]$ python3.6 email_test.py -s 5.5.5.5 -r vinay.umesh@abcd.com,dhilen.mamtora@abcd.com vinay.umesh@abcd.com,dhilen.mamtora@abcd.com <class 'str'> [rda@server ~]$ python3.6 email_test.py -s 5.5.5.5 -r 'vinay.umesh@abcd.com,dhilen.mamtora@abcd.com' vinay.umesh@abcd.com,dhilen.mamtora@abcd.com <class 'str'> [rda@server ~]$ python3.6 email_test.py -s 5.5.5.5 -r vinay.umesh@abcd.com vinay.umesh@abcd.com <class 'str'> [rda@server ~]$ vim email_test.py [rda@server ~]$ python3.6 email_test.py -s 5.5.5.5 -r 'vinay.umesh@abcd.com,dhilen.mamtora@abcd.com' vinay.umesh@abcd.com,dhilen.mamtora@abcd.com <class 'str'> [rda@server ~]$ python3.6 email_test.py -s 5.5.5.5 -r vinay.umesh@abcd.com vinay.umesh@abcd.com <class 'str'> [rda@server ~]$ python3.6 email_test.py -s 5.5.5.5 -r 'vinay.umesh@abcd.com','dhilen.mamtora@abcd.com' vinay.umesh@abcd.com,dhilen.mamtora@abcd.com <class 'str'>

@babvin The issue seemed to be in the way you parse arguments. Fixed the code, PFB.

import emails
import argparse

def check_arg(args=None):

    parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description='Script to send a  Report through Email')

    parser.add_argument('-s', '--smtpServer',
                        help='smtp server ip',
                        required=True)

    parser.add_argument('-r', '--mailRecipient',
                        nargs='+',
                        help='mail recipient, enter "<space>" seperated',
                        required=True
                        )

    results = parser.parse_args(args)

    return (results.smtpServer, results.mailRecipient)

#
smtphost, to = check_arg()
#Generate Email
message = emails.html(html="<p>Hi<br>Please find attached  Report. To see all previously run report archives, use this link >>> http://report/report/",
                       subject=" Report " ,
                       mail_from=('vmax_snapshots_report'))

#Send Message
#SMTP IP is hard coded since the file collation and sending email is done by the Master node

print(to)
print(type(to))
r = message.send(to=[to], smtp={'host': smtphost, 'timeout': 5})
assert r.status_code == 250

Got Results:

scratch_3.py -s 5.5.5.5 -r test1@test.com, test2@test.com
['test1@test.com,', 'test2@test.com']
<class 'list'>
