Auto.Email - Email_Automation

auto.email is a Command-line based tool to send batches of emails with some attachments, attachments can be the same for all or different for each email, it's on you!

Things to do Before you start sending:

• Keep your email id and secret app code in the security/security.txt file

• Save Email content to body.txt, change config.txt according to you, and add the receiver's info in email_data.csv

• Keep all attachments in the data folder with the name same as a receiver (CASE SENSITIVE)

• Run the below command if there is no error emails will be sent or you will get a prompt for confirmation

    poetry run python Runner.py
  

• Script will print the time taken at the end, and will generate 2 logs files, logs.csv and Scriptlogs.txt.
