Hi all,
I'm writing a Python script to do a "mail merge" style email
distribution. I create a few python threads and in each one I call
`smtpserver = smtplib.SMTP(our.smtpserver.com)`. However, during the
sending process, there seems to be only one connection open to our mail
server at any one time. In other words, all these threads gain me no
speed benefit at all!
I seem to be running into the issue where smtplib is not fully
thread-safe, as mentioned in this thread:
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2007-March/429067.html
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2007-March/429172.html
Does anyone have suggestions as to a suitable workaround for this issue?
I was looking at the Twisted library, which seems possible but
significantly more complex.
Thanks,
Alex Jurkiewicz
