google app engine - Python : smtplib sendmail function -


i have activation mail sending script follows.

#!/usr/bin/python  __author__ = 'amyth arora (***@gmail.com)'  import smtplib import string import sys import random  email.mimetext import mimetext   def generate_activation_key(size=64, chars=string.ascii_lowercase + string.digits):   return ''.join(random.choice(chars) x in range(size))   def generate_activation_url(key):   return 'http://www.example.com/users/activate/' + key  def activate(name, to_addr):   sender, reciever = 'mymail@gmail.com', to_addr   act_url = generate_activation_url(generate_activation_key())   main_mssg = """   dear %s,    thakyou creating account example.com. 1 click away using example account. please click following link verify email address , activate account.     please note, must complete step become registered member of example. need visit url once in order activate account.    ============================   activation link below:   ============================    %s     if facing problems activating account please contact our support team @   support@example.com    best regards,    example team   """ % (name, act_url)     message = mimetext(main_mssg)   message['from'] = 'example <' + sender + '>'   message['to'] = reciever   message['mime-version'] = '1.0'   message['content-type'] = 'text/html'   message['subject'] = 'activate example account'   try:     smtpobj = smtplib.smtp('smtp.gmail.com', 587)     smtpobj.set_debuglevel(1)  # swith on/off debug mode     smtpobj.ehlo()     smtpobj.starttls()     smtpobj.ehlo()     smtpobj.login('mymail@gmail.com', 'mypass')     smtpobj.sendmail(sender, reciever, message.as_string())     smtpobj.close()     return act_url   except:     return none  def main(argv):   if len(argv) != 2:     sys.exit(1)   activate(argv[0], argv[1])   if __name__ == '__main__':   main(sys.argv[1:]) 

the script works fine have tried through command line :

./scriptname 'reciepent name' 'reciepent@gmail.com' 

however want call activation script within 1 of application handlers this.

import activation  act_key = activation.activate('reciepent name', 'reciepent@gmail.com') 

but when script returns none. can figure out how fix ?

app engine not allow users send emails using smtplib library. instead need use api provided. documentation can found here: https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/python/mail
