[RFC-5322 allows](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5322#section-3.6.2)
multiple addresses in the From header.
Django's SMTP backend supports this, as a single comma-separated
string (*not* a list of strings like the recipient params):
from_email='one@example.com, two@example.com'
to=['one@example.com', 'two@example.com']
Both Mailgun and SparkPost support multiple From addresses
(and Postmark accepts them, though truncates to the first one
on their end). For compatibility with Django -- and because
Anymail attempts to support all ESP features -- Anymail now
allows multiple From addresses, too, for ESPs that support it.
Note: as a practical matter, deliverability with multiple
From addresses is pretty bad. (Google outright rejects them.)
This change also reworks Anymail's internal ParsedEmail object,
and approach to parsing addresses, for better consistency with
Django's SMTP backend and improved error messaging.
In particular, Django (and now Anymail) allows multiple email
addresses in a single recipient string:
to=['one@example.com', 'two@example.com, three@example.com']
len(to) == 2 # but there will be three recipients
Fixes#60
Issue a better error message if message.reply_to
is set to a single string.
(Would also like to do this for to, cc, and bcc,
but Django core EmailMessage.recipients is called
and stumbles over thoses cases before Anymail's
backend gets involved.)
Fixes#57
* **Future breaking change:**
Rename all Anymail backends to just `EmailBackend`,
matching Django's naming convention.
(E.g., switch to "anymail.backends.mailgun.EmailBackend"
rather than "anymail.backends.mailgun.MailgunBackend".)
The old names still work, but will issue a DeprecationWarning
and will be removed in some future release.
(Apologies for this change; the old naming convention was
a holdover from Djrill, and I wanted consistency with
other Django EmailBackends before hitting 1.0.)
Fixes#49.
Mandrill's webhook signature calculation uses the
*exact url* Mandrill is posting to. If HTTP basic
auth is also used, that auth is included in the url.
Anymail was using Django's request.build_absolute_uri,
which doesn't include HTTP basic auth. Anymail now
includes the auth in the calculation, if it was present
in the request.
This should eliminate the need to use the
ANYMAIL_MANDRILL_WEBHOOK_URL override,
if Django's SECURE_PROXY_SSL_HEADER and
USE_X_FORWARDED_HOST (and/or
USE_X_FORWARDED_PROTO) settings are correct
for your server.
(The calculated url is now also included in
the validation failure error message, to aid
debugging.)
Fixes#48
SendGrid: update to v3 send API
**SendGrid:** **[possibly-breaking]** Update SendGrid backend to newer Web API v3. This should be a transparent change for most projects. Exceptions: if you use SendGrid username/password auth, esp_extra with "x-smtpapi", or multiple Reply-To addresses, please review the [porting notes](http://anymail.readthedocs.io/en/latest/esps/sendgrid/#sendgrid-v3-upgrade).
Closes#28
In BasePayload, ensure any Django ugettext_lazy
(or similar) are converted to real strings before
handing off to ESP code. This resolves problems where
calling code expects it can use lazy strings "anywhere",
but non-Django code (requests, ESP packages) don't
always handle them correctly.
* Add utils helpers for lazy objects (is_lazy, force_non_lazy*)
* Add lazy object handling to utils.Attachment
* Add lazy object handling converters to BasePayload attr
processing where appropriate. (This ends up varying by
the expected attribute type.)
Fixes#34.
Anymail was requiring Mandrill's webhook authentication key for the initial webhook url validation request from Mandrill, but Mandrill doesn't issue the key until that validation request succeeds.
* Defer complaining about missing Mandrill webhook key until actual event post.
* Document the double-deploy process required to set up Mandrill webhooks.
Fixes#46.
Add support for Postmark's recently-released [delivery tracking webhook] to Anymail's normailized status event handling. The existing Anymail tracking webhook URL can be copied to "Delivery webhook" in your Postmark outbound server settings.
Closes#45.
A message's `from_email` and each address in its `to`, `cc`, and `bcc` lists must contain exactly one email address. Previous code would silently ignore additional addresses, leading to unusual behavior. Now, raises new `AnymailInvalidAddress` exception.
Example: `from_email='Widgets, Inc. <widgets@example.com>'` is invalid: it needs double-quotes around the "Widgets, Inc." display-name portion. In earlier versions, this probably would have sent the message from something like "From: Widgets <@localhost>". Now, it will raise an exception.
**Potentially-breaking change:** If your code is using an unquoted display-name containing a comma in an email address, it will now raise an error. In earlier versions, this may have appeared to succeed, but was almost certainly not doing what you intended.
Fixes#44.
Compatibility with Python 2.7 versions older than 2.7.7
* Use Django's constant_time_compare method
* Include sparkpost in test requirements
* Don't use non-public `EnvironmentVarGuard` in tests
Fixes#41
Allows clients that use AnymailMessage or AnymailMessageMixin
to access (e.g.) message.anymail_status.message_id without
an AttributeError, even when using a non-Anymail backend
(e.g., during testing).
Also clarify docs of anymail_status attribute to note it only gets
attached to a normal Django EmailMessage when sent through
an Anymail backend.
(May help with situation described in #36)
Allow custom MAILGUN_SENDER_DOMAIN in Anymail
settings. (Replaces need to use global esp_extra.)
Improve docs to cover cases where this is needed.
(esp_extra sender_domain is still supported for
overriding individual messages.)
Fixes#26.
When using a stored template, SparkPost disallows
subject, text, and html. Django's EmailMessage default
empty strings are enough to provoke "Both content
object and template_id are specified" from SparkPost,
so remove them (if empty) when using stored templates.
Update docs and tests; add integration test for template_id.
Fixes#24
python-sparkpost generates a transmissions.send
payload which is now considered invalid by the API,
if you try to use both `cc` (or `bcc`) and the
`recipients` dict structure required for merge_data.
[Anymail had been generating that recipients dict
structure in all cases, for simplicity. Sometime
between 2016-06-07 and 2016-06-22, SparkPost
began rejecting that if it appeared in the `header_to`
constructed by python-sparkpost.]
Catch and re-raise requests.RequestException in
AnymailRequestsBackend.post_to_esp.
* AnymailRequestsAPIError is needed for proper
fail_silently handling.
* Retain original requests exception type, to avoid
breaking existing code that might look for specific
requests exceptions.
Closes#16
* csrf_exempt must be applied to View.dispatch,
not View.post.
* In base WebhookTestCase, enable Django test Client
enforce_csrf_checks. (Test Client by default disables
CSRF protection.)
Closes#19
* Set to field when using merge_data
The `to` field is required even if providing recipient addresses in x-smtpapi. See https://sendgrid.com/docs/API_Reference/Web_API/mail.html#-send.
* Check data['to'] contains expected emails
* Add space for toname check
* Make `to` expected data contain email only
* Create generic TestBackend that simply collects
send parameters
* Change BackendSettingsTests to TestBackend,
and add some missing cases
* Add UnsupportedFeatureTests
* Replace repetitive per-backend SEND_DEFAULTS
test cases with single (and more comprehensive)
SendDefaultsTests
* Merge esp_extra with Mandrill send payload
* Handle pythonic forms of `recipient_metadata`
and `template_content` in esp_extra
* DeprecationWarning for Mandrill EmailMessage
attributes inherited from Djrill
* message.template_id to use ESP stored templates
* message.merge_data and merge_global_data
to supply per-recipient/global merge variables
(with or without an ESP stored template)
* When using per-recipient merge_data, tell ESP to use
batch send: individual message per "to" address.
(Mailgun does this automatically; SendGrid requires
using a different "to" field; Mandrill requires
`preserve_recipients=False`; Postmark doesn't
support *this type* of batch sending with merge data.)
* Allow message.from_email=None (must be set after
init) and message.subject=None to suppress those
fields in API calls (for ESPs that allow "From" and
"Subject" in their template definitions).
Mailgun:
* Emulate merge_global_data by copying to
recipient-variables for each recipient.
SendGrid:
* Add delimiters to merge field names via
esp_extra['merge_field_format'] or
ANYMAIL_SENDGRID_MERGE_FIELD_FORMAT setting.
Mandrill:
* Remove Djrill versions of these features;
update migration notes.
Closes#5.
