# Email Sender Script
This Python script sends an email using Gmail SMTP. It loads sender credentials and recipient email address from environment variables, and the email content from a file. The script supports sending both plain text and HTML emails.
## Prerequisites
- Python 3.x installed on your system
- Gmail account for sending emails
- Enable "Less secure app access" or set up an "App password" for Gmail (if using 2-step verification)
## Installation
1. Clone this repository to your local machine:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/AppleBoiy/pymail.git
```
2. Install the required Python packages:
```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
3. Set up environment variables:
Create a `.env` file in the project directory and add the following variables:
```
[email protected]
PASSWORD_SENDER=your_gmail_password_or_app_password
[email protected]
```
Replace `[email protected]` with your Gmail email address, `your_gmail_password_or_app_password` with your Gmail password or app password, and `[email protected]` with the recipient's email address.
## Usage
Run the script `main.py` to send the email:
```bash
python main.py
```
## Customization
- Modify the `payload.html` file to customize the email content.
- Adjust the logging configuration in the script as needed.
- Extend the script with additional features like attachments or multiple recipients.
