[Twisted-Python] send somes mails
Hi, Is it a good way to call smtp.sendmail() for sending a lot of mails (it's for a scrabble game, not spam !) It will connect and deconect for each mail isn't it ? thanks -- William Dodé - http://flibuste.net

Unless you are sending all the mail to users on a single host or you have a smarthost which will relay your mail, you must make multiple connections. Of course, if you're sending to a smart host, it just means that that server will have to go out and make connections to multiple hosts... So you're not saving any work, you're just pushing it onto someone else. Jp -- Seduced, shaggy Samson snored. She scissored short.

I'm very egoist, i want only to save the work of my programme and let all the problems to the smarthost ;-). Because i don't want to deal with queues and others things like that... My goal is to send the mails to the smarthost the most quickly i can. It's why i thought i could keep one connection open with the smarthost. -- William Dodé - http://flibuste.net
