Solved:Is the send email service servered or not?

yuefeiluo · August 18, 2023, 5:58am

I can send email with belowing python code:

import smtplib, ssl
from email.mime.text import MIMEText
from email.mime.multipart import MIMEMultipart

def sendemail(subject="title",content="info"):
    port = 465
    smtp_server = "smtp.qq.com"
    sender_email = "[email protected]"
    receiver_email = "[email protected]"
    password = "xxxx"
    message = MIMEMultipart("alternative")
    message["Subject"] = subject
    message["From"] = sender_email
    message["To"] = receiver_email
    text = content
    part = MIMEText(text, "plain")
    message.attach(part)
    context = ssl.create_default_context()
    with smtplib.SMTP_SSL("smtp.qq.com", port, context=context) as server:
        server.login(sender_email, password)
        server.sendmail(sender_email, receiver_email, message.as_string())

The email can be found in [email protected] when to call sendemail() in python console.

Setting in configuration.yaml:

notify:
  - name: "send_email"
    platform: smtp
    server: "smtp.qq.com"
    port: 465
    timeout: 15
    sender: "[email protected]"
    encryption: starttls
    username: "[email protected]"
    password: xxxxx
    recipient:
      - "[email protected]"
    sender_name: "hass service"

Restart homeassistant service and click the CALL SERVICE.

I have found no email in my [email protected], is the send email service servered or not?

Not sure what you mean. The integration connects directly to the smtp server you specified.

You need to look at, and post your logs

Perhaps because target is not a valid email address. See docs, I think target is

recipient list | string REQUIRED

Default E-mail address of the recipient of the notification. This can be a recipient address or a list of addresses for multiple recipients.
This is where you want to send your E-mail notifications by default (when not specifying target in the service call). Any E-mail address(es) specified in the service call’s target field will override this recipient content.

yuefeiluo · August 19, 2023, 4:18am

Where can run?

recipient list | string REQUIRED

yuefeiluo · August 19, 2023, 4:19am

It is no use to call as :

nickrout · August 19, 2023, 4:20am

You have it set, just don’t set target: in your service call.

nickrout · August 19, 2023, 4:21am

So what error do you get now?

Make port and protocol matched:

notify:
  - name: "send_email"
    platform: smtp
    server: "smtp.qq.com"
    port: 587
    encryption: starttls

Or:

notify:
  - name: "send_email"
    platform: smtp
    server: "smtp.qq.com"
    port: 465
    encryption: tls
