今天记录一下怎样使用python收发邮件,知识要点在python内置的poplib和stmplib模块的使用上。
1. 准备工作
首先,我们须要有一个測试邮箱。我们使用新浪邮箱,并且要进行例如以下设置:
在新浪邮箱首页的右上角找到设置->很多其它设置,然后在左边选择“client/pop/imap/smtp”:
最后,将Pop3/smtp服务的服务状态打开就可以:
2. poplib接收邮件
首先。介绍一下poplib登录邮箱和下载邮件的一些接口:
self.popHost = 'pop.sina.com' self.smtpHost = 'smtp.sina.com' self.port = 25 self.userName = 'xxxxxx@sina.com' self.passWord = 'xxxxxx' self.bossMail = 'xxxxxx@qq.com'
我们须要如上一些常量,用于指定登录邮箱以及pop。smtpserver及port。我们调用poplib的POP3_SSL接口能够登录到邮箱。
# 登录邮箱 def login(self): try: self.mailLink = poplib.POP3_SSL(self.popHost) self.mailLink.set_debuglevel(0) self.mailLink.user(self.userName) self.mailLink.pass_(self.passWord) self.mailLink.list() print u'login success!' except Exception as e: print u'login fail! ' + str(e) quit()
在登录邮箱的时候,非常自然,我们须要提供username和password,如上述代码所看到的,使用非常easy。
登录邮箱成功后,我们能够使用list方法获取邮箱的邮件信息。我们看到list方法的定义:
def list(self, which=None): """Request listing, return result. Result without a message number argument is in form ['response', ['mesg_num octets', ...], octets]. Result when a message number argument is given is a single response: the "scan listing" for that message. """ if which is not None: return self._shortcmd('LIST %s' % which) return self._longcmd('LIST')我们看到list方法的凝视。当中文意思是,list方法有一个默认參数which。其默认值为None,当调用者没有给出參数时,该方法会列出全部邮件的信息,其返回形式为 [response, ['msg_number, octets', ...], octets]。当中,response为响应结果。msg_number是邮件编号,octets为8位字节单位。我们看一看详细样例:
('+OK ', ['1 2424', '2 2422'], 16)
这是一个调用list()方法以后的返回结果。非常明显,这是一个tuple,第一个值sahib响应结果'+OK',表示请求成功,第二个值为一个数组。存储了邮件的信息。比如'1 2424'中的1表示该邮件编号为1。
以下我们再看怎样使用poplib下载邮件。
# 获取邮件 def retrMail(self): try: mail_list = self.mailLink.list()[1] if len(mail_list) == 0: return None mail_info = mail_list[0].split(' ') number = mail_info[0] mail = self.mailLink.retr(number)[1] self.mailLink.dele(number) subject = u'' sender = u'' for i in range(0, len(mail)): if mail[i].startswith('Subject'): subject = mail[i][9:] if mail[i].startswith('X-Sender'): sender = mail[i][10:] content = {'subject': subject, 'sender': sender} return content except Exception as e: print str(e) return Nonepoplib获取邮件内容的接口是retr方法。
其须要一个參数,该參数为要获取的邮件编号。以下是retr方法的定义:
def retr(self, which): """Retrieve whole message number 'which'. Result is in form ['response', ['line', ...], octets]. """ return self._longcmd('RETR %s' % which)我们看到凝视,能够知道。retr方法能够获取指定编号的邮件的所有内容。其返回形式为[response, ['line', ...], octets],可见,邮件的内容是存储在返回的tuple的第二个元素中,其存储形式为一个数组。我们測试一下,该数组是怎么样的。
我们能够看到。这个数组的存储形式类似于一个dict!
于是。我们能够据此找到不论什么我们感兴趣的内容。比如,我们的演示样例代码是要找到邮件的主题以及发送者,就能够依照上面的代码那样编写。当然。你也能够使用正则匹配~~~ 以下是測试结果:
嗯...大家能够自己试一下。
3. smtp发送邮件
和pop一样,使用smtp之前也要先给它提供一些须要的常量:
self.mail_box = smtplib.SMTP(self.smtpHost, self.port) self.mail_box.login(self.userName, self.passWord)上面是使用smtp登录邮箱的代码,和pop类似。以下给出使用smtp发送邮件的代码。你会看到python是多么的简单优美!
# 发送邮件 def sendMsg(self, mail_body='Success!'): try: msg = MIMEText(mail_body, 'plain', 'utf-8') msg['Subject'] = mail_body msg['from'] = self.userName self.mail_box.sendmail(self.userName, self.bossMail, msg.as_string()) print u'send mail success!' except Exception as e: print u'send mail fail! ' + str(e)这就是python用smtp发送邮件的代码!非常easy有木有。非常方便有木有!非常通俗易懂有木有!
这里主要就是sendmail这种方法,指定发送方,接收方和邮件内容就能够了。还有MIMEText能够看它的定义例如以下:
class MIMEText(MIMENonMultipart): """Class for generating text/* type MIME documents.""" def __init__(self, _text, _subtype='plain', _charset='us-ascii'): """Create a text/* type MIME document. _text is the string for this message object. _subtype is the MIME sub content type, defaulting to "plain". _charset is the character set parameter added to the Content-Type header. This defaults to "us-ascii". Note that as a side-effect, the Content-Transfer-Encoding header will also be set. """ MIMENonMultipart.__init__(self, 'text', _subtype, **{'charset': _charset}) self.set_payload(_text, _charset)看凝视~~~ 这就是一个生成指定内容,指定编码的MIME文档的方法而已。
顺便看看sendmail方法吧~~~
def sendmail(self, from_addr, to_addrs, msg, mail_options=[], rcpt_options=[]): """This command performs an entire mail transaction. The arguments are: - from_addr : The address sending this mail. - to_addrs : A list of addresses to send this mail to. A bare string will be treated as a list with 1 address. - msg : The message to send. - mail_options : List of ESMTP options (such as 8bitmime) for the mail command. - rcpt_options : List of ESMTP options (such as DSN commands) for all the rcpt commands.嗯...使用smtp发送邮件的内容大概就这样了。
4. 源代码及測试
# -*- coding:utf-8 -*- from email.mime.text import MIMEText import poplib import smtplib class MailManager(object): def __init__(self): self.popHost = 'pop.sina.com' self.smtpHost = 'smtp.sina.com' self.port = 25 self.userName = 'xxxxxx@sina.com' self.passWord = 'xxxxxx' self.bossMail = 'xxxxxx@qq.com' self.login() self.configMailBox() # 登录邮箱 def login(self): try: self.mailLink = poplib.POP3_SSL(self.popHost) self.mailLink.set_debuglevel(0) self.mailLink.user(self.userName) self.mailLink.pass_(self.passWord) self.mailLink.list() print u'login success!' except Exception as e: print u'login fail! ' + str(e) quit() # 获取邮件 def retrMail(self): try: mail_list = self.mailLink.list()[1] if len(mail_list) == 0: return None mail_info = mail_list[0].split(' ') number = mail_info[0] mail = self.mailLink.retr(number)[1] self.mailLink.dele(number) subject = u'' sender = u'' for i in range(0, len(mail)): if mail[i].startswith('Subject'): subject = mail[i][9:] if mail[i].startswith('X-Sender'): sender = mail[i][10:] content = {'subject': subject, 'sender': sender} return content except Exception as e: print str(e) return None def configMailBox(self): try: self.mail_box = smtplib.SMTP(self.smtpHost, self.port) self.mail_box.login(self.userName, self.passWord) print u'config mailbox success!' except Exception as e: print u'config mailbox fail! ' + str(e) quit() # 发送邮件 def sendMsg(self, mail_body='Success!'): try: msg = MIMEText(mail_body, 'plain', 'utf-8') msg['Subject'] = mail_body msg['from'] = self.userName self.mail_box.sendmail(self.userName, self.bossMail, msg.as_string()) print u'send mail success!' except Exception as e: print u'send mail fail! ' + str(e) if __name__ == '__main__': mailManager = MailManager() mail = mailManager.retrMail() if mail != None: print mail mailManager.sendMsg()上述代码先登录邮箱。然后获取其第一封邮件并删除之,然后获取该邮件的主题和发送方并打印出来,最后再发送一封成功邮件给还有一个bossMail邮箱。
測试结果例如以下:
好的,大家能够把上面的代码复制一下,自己玩一下呗~~~
