Inspiration

I wanted to take the first step in automating the email tasks. This script will ideally be built upon to work with other applications, such as a task manager, to hopefully automatically send the email based on your task. This will hopefully help save time in the long run.

What it does

It logins you into your email and allows you to send an email to someone. Asking for your email subject, recipient, and body text. The body text can either be custom or a random quote from Shakespeare.

How I built it

I used some helpful API, "EmailMessage", "dotenv" and "smtplib" are the big ones but used other ones as well/

Challenges I ran into

Connecting to the server was a challenge and finding up to date api's.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

Automating a task I do every day.

What I learned

How to apply the specified API's

What's next for Emailing Script

I will make this script more user friendly and create a task manager to send emails automatically related to a specific task.

Built With
