I do not know. I was not aware and could hardly find any information on create.post(). From what I have seen at first glance, it seems that create.post() either opens your standard email program or web browser, which the python code does not. Instead it needs the R-library interfacing Python. I also do not know how create.post() handles server authentication (though, my blind guess would be with the settings of your email program or browser mail). To stop guessing, if you want a solid comparison, I am afraid you have to do it yourself.
