STMP, mail, sender-from, to-bcc-addr

[durumdara]

Hi!

I wanna ask that have anyone some experience with email.msg and smtplib?

The email message and smtp.send already have "sender/from" and
"recip/addr to".
Possible the smtp components does not uses the email tags if I not
define them only in the message?

Can I do same thing as in GMAIL that the mail does not have TO, only BCC
tags/recipients, and no one of the recipients who knows about the each
others?

Thanks:

smtplib.SMTP.sendmail() does not look in the message to find the sender
or recipients; it only uses the parameters you pass.

Include the BCC-recipients in the call to sendmail(), but don't put them
in the email message itself. Include TO-recipients in both. In other
words, what you put in the TO-header is what all recipients will see;
what you pass to sendmail() is what recipients the mail will be send to.
Simple example (not tested):

from_addr = '(e-mail address removed)'
to_addr = ['(e-mail address removed)', '(e-mail address removed)']
bcc_addr = ['(e-mail address removed)', '(e-mail address removed)']

msg = """From: %s
To: %s
Subject: test

hello
""" % (from_addr, ', '.join(to_addr))

smtp = smtplib.SMTP(...)
smtp.sendmail(from_addr, to_addr + bcc_addr, msg)
