mailbomb.py is a simple script to send a lot of emails. Given a CSV of
name and email pairs, mailbomb.py will send an email to every address,
personalized with the corresponding name.
This is a convenience script. Using it to spam or harass is strongly discouraged, and I decline any responsibility for its misuse.
Clone this repository with $ git clone https://github.com/jacquerie/mailbomb.py.git.
Suppose that file.csv contains the list of name and email pairs you want to
use, in the format exemplified by the included example.csv. Then, running
$ python mailbomb.py file.csvwill print the list of emails that would be sent by mailbomb.py.
In order to actually send the emails, you have to create and configure a mail
server. mailbomb.py includes a sample configuration for Gmail, which you can
enable substituting the following lines
credentials = DebugCredentials()
server = DebugServer(credentials)with
credentials = GoogleCredentials()
server = GoogleServer(credentials)You can customize the email you want to send by modifying the BODY global
variable. There's no support for multipart emails or more flexible templating
engines, but it's planned.
The provided class GoogleCredentials will read the username and the password
from the environment as the variables GMAIL_USERNAME and GMAIL_PASSWORD,
respectively. There's currently no support for helping the user define these
variables, but it's planned.
Patches are welcome. Please make sure that the code you submit complies to both
PEP8 and PEP257 using the pep8 and pep257 tools. I am especially interested
in seeing:
- Proper command line argument parsing
- Support for a template engine for emails
- Convenience scripts to help the user set up the environment
