使用Python使用内联图像向Gmail发送电子邮件

时间:2022-02-20 18:13:26

My objective is to use Python to send an e-mail to a Gmail user that has an inline image. It is not possible to host this image online and then link to it through a href, due to the sensitive nature of the images (data from my work).

我的目标是使用Python向具有内联映像的Gmail用户发送电子邮件。由于图像的敏感性(来自我工作的数据),不可能在网上托管该图像,然后通过href链接到它。

I've tried encoding the base64 version into a HTML then sending th is HTML, but this is well known to not work. I then noticed that in Gmail you can drag and drop an image into the send box and it will show up inline in the receiving end. Given this I then tried to send an e-mail from Python with the image as an attachment. This is seen in the below code, but unfortunately the image doesn't show up inline.

我试过将base64的版本编码成HTML,然后发送th是HTML,但这是众所周知的不工作。然后我注意到,在Gmail中,您可以将图像拖放到发送框中,它将在接收端内联显示。因此,我尝试从Python发送电子邮件,并将图像作为附件。这是在下面的代码中看到的,但不幸的是图像没有显示在内联。

My question is then: How to send the image such that it shows up inline?

我的问题是:如何发送图像,使其显示为内联的?

import smtplib
from email.MIMEMultipart import MIMEMultipart
from email.MIMEBase import MIMEBase
from email.MIMEText import MIMEText
from email import Encoders
import os

gmail_user = "user1@gmail.com"
gmail_pwd = "pass"

to = "user2@gmail.com"
subject = "Report"
text = "Picture report"
attach = 'TESTING.png'

msg = MIMEMultipart()

msg['From'] = gmail_user
msg['To'] = to
msg['Subject'] = subject

msg.attach(MIMEText(text))

part = MIMEBase('application', 'octet-stream')
part.set_payload(open(attach, 'rb').read())
Encoders.encode_base64(part)
part.add_header('Content-Disposition',
   'attachment; filename="%s"' % os.path.basename(attach))
msg.attach(part)

mailServer = smtplib.SMTP("smtp.gmail.com", 587)
mailServer.ehlo()
mailServer.starttls()
mailServer.ehlo()
mailServer.login(gmail_user, gmail_pwd)
mailServer.sendmail(gmail_user, to, msg.as_string())
# Should be mailServer.quit(), but that crashes...
mailServer.close()

When I send the inline image to myself manually this is what the "original email" looks like:

当我手工发送内联图像给自己时,这就是“原始电子邮件”的样子:

  Content-Type: multipart/related; boundary=047d7bd761fe73e03304e7e02237

--047d7bd761fe73e03304e7e02237
Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary=047d7bd761fe73e03004e7e02236

<div dir="ltr"><img alt="Inline images 1" src="cid:ii_141810ee4ae92ac6" height="400" width="534"><br></div>

--047d7bd761fe73e03004e7e02236--
--047d7bd761fe73e03304e7e02237

Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-ID: <ii_141810ee4ae92ac6>
X-Attachment-Id: ii_141810ee4ae92ac6

When I send it to myself through Python as an attachment it is very different:

当我通过Python将它作为附件发送给自己时,情况就大不相同了:

Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="===============6881579935569047077=="
MIME-Version: 1.0
(.... some stuff deleted here)
--===============6881579935569047077==
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

See attachment for report.
--===============6881579935569047077==
Content-Type: application/octet-stream
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="TESTING.png"

It seems that following the gmail email template works:

似乎遵循gmail邮件模板可以工作:

* multipart/alternative
  - text/plain
  - multipart/related
    + text/html
      <img src="cid:msgid"/>
    + image/png
      Content-ID: <msgid>

Based on the example from email module docs:

以电子邮件模块文档为例:

#!/usr/bin/env python3
import html
import mimetypes
from email.headerregistry import Address
from email.message import EmailMessage
from email.utils import make_msgid
from pathlib import Path

title = 'Picture report…'
path = Path('TESTING.png')
me = Address("Pepé Le Pew", *gmail_user.rsplit('@', 1))

msg = EmailMessage()
msg['Subject'] = 'Report…'
msg['From'] = me
msg['To'] = [me]
msg.set_content('[image: {title}]'.format(title=title))  # text/plain
cid = make_msgid()[1:-1]  # strip <>    
msg.add_alternative(  # text/html
    '<img src="cid:{cid}" alt="{alt}"/>'
    .format(cid=cid, alt=html.escape(title, quote=True)),
    subtype='html')
maintype, subtype = mimetypes.guess_type(str(path))[0].split('/', 1)
msg.get_payload()[1].add_related(  # image/png
    path.read_bytes(), maintype, subtype, cid="<{cid}>".format(cid=cid))

# save to disk a local copy of the message
Path('outgoing.msg').write_bytes(bytes(msg))

To send msg via gmail:

通过gmail发送msg:

    s.starttls(context=ssl.create_default_context())
    s.login(gmail_user, gmail_password)
    s.send_message(msg)

Python 2/3 compatible version

SMTP_SSL is optional, you could use starttls method from your question instead:

SMTP_SSL是可选的,您可以使用问题中的starttls方法:

I think you need to add the following lines:

我认为你需要加上以下几行:

from email.mime.image import MIMEImage

body = MIMEText('<p>Test Image<img src="cid:testimage" /></p>', _subtype='html')
msg.attach(body)


img = MIMEImage(image.read(), 'jpeg')
img.add_header('Content-Id', '<testimage>')
msg.attach(img)

testimage should be replaced with a unique identifier

应该用唯一标识符替换testimage。
