Inspiration

I made this project for MLH INIT 2022 Day-5 submission for "Schedule a task". I always found sending mail a boring work so I build a python script.

What it does

It automates your mails.

How we built it

Using python and SMTP library.

How to use

Go to replit on the right side you will find a lock icon click on it and add your creds, change the receiver's mail, subject and run the script.

Schedule your mail

run this in cmd or terminal

pip install hickory

Call hickory schedule at the command line with emailbot.py as the script argument:

hickory schedule emailbot.py --every=day@9:00am

And that's literally it!

If you want to check the status of the schedule you can with:

hickory status
# ID      FILE         STATE    RUNS
# ea6b74  emailbot.py  waiting  0  

And to kill the schedule:

hickory kill emailbot.py

Happy emailing!
