Method Details

connectionMade(self)

Called when a connection is made.

This may be considered the initializer of the protocol, because it is called when the connection is completed. For clients, this is called once the connection to the server has been established; for servers, this is called after an accept() call stops blocking and a socket has been received. If you need to send any greeting or initial message, do it here.
Overrides:
twisted.internet.protocol.BaseProtocol.connectionMade (inherited documentation)

getMailData(self)

Return file-like object containing data of message to be sent.

The file should be a text file with local line ending convention, i.e. readline() should return a line ending in '\n'.

getMailFrom(self)

Return the email address the mail is from.

getMailTo(self)

Return a list of emails to send to.

lineReceived(self, line)

Override this for when each line is received.
Overrides:
twisted.protocols.basic.LineReceiver.lineReceived (inherited documentation)

resumeProducing(self)

Write another

sentMail(self, addresses)

Called with list of emails to which we sent the message.
