Welcome to the TurboMail Project

Latest News

The second beta of TurboMail 3.0 has been released! Please see the release notice for additional information.

Version 2.0 Overview

TurboMail is a TurboGears extension, meaning that it starts up and shuts down alongside any TurboGears applications you write, in the same way that visit tracking and identity do. TurboMail uses built-in Python modules for SMTP communication and MIME e-mail creation, but greatly simplifies these tasks by performing the grunt-work for you. Additionally, TurboMail is multi-threaded, allowing for single or batch enqueueing and background delivery of mail.

Quick Example

It is very, very easy to use TurboMail inside your TurboGears application. After configuring TurboMail (see the TurboMailGuide for details), the following will send mail:

import turbomail

# ...

message = turbomail.Message("from@example.com", "to@example.com", subject)
message.plain = "Hello world!"

turbomail.enqueue(message)

It's just that easy.
