Proxy support

[b3mb4m]

ps : socks project is clearly not working and outdated,

[kootenpv]

I don't understand the relation to yagmail?

[b3mb4m]

Just anohter mail related feature to add, nothing special

yag = yagmail.SMTP('mygmailusername', 'mygmailpassword', 'myproxy)

[kootenpv]

Oh I have overseen this last message. Could you perhaps give an example for a proxy, I think it would be interesting way. Would we we need an extra library for this functionality?

I found this online:

import smtplib
import socks

#socks.setdefaultproxy(TYPE, ADDR, PORT)
socks.setdefaultproxy(socks.SOCKS5, 'proxy.proxy.com', 8080)
socks.wrapmodule(smtplib)  # in our case yagmail

<continue with yagmail like usual>

Is something like how you had it in mind?

I tried to send email with socks5 proxy, here is the code:
socks.setdefaultproxy(socks.SOCKS5, 'proxy.proxy.com', 1080)
socks.wrapmodule(yagmail)

Got AttributeError: module 'yagmail' has no attribute 'socket', how to fix this issue? @kootenpv
Thank you.

@xk7612 I have no idea to be honest.

Maybe you could try socks.wrapmodule(yagmail.smtplib)?

this is great

@chenerg Did this code snippet work for you? Then indeed maybe we can add it like this:

yagmail.SMTP(..., proxy="myproxy.proxy.com:8080")

@kootenpv thank you, I try to rewrite yagmail.SMTP, it works!
yagmail_proxy_example

[kootenpv]

@ds19991999 So we could add the keyword argument proxy to yagmail.SMTP and in the init run the set_proxy method if proxy is not None? If you want you can make a PR and I'd accept it!
