I just released the first version of rapidmail, a simple Python library that lets you generate and send transactional emails with the minimum of fuss: https://github.com/chris104957/rapidmail

Rapidmail lets you send messages with an extremely simple Python one-liner: rapidmail.send_mail('# Hello, world!', 'subject', ['[email protected]'])

Where this differs from using something like the AWS SES CLI is that rapidmail supports markdown syntax and placeholder insertion right out of the box.

Rapidmail actually uses the Maildown API - a startup that I posted about here a few weeks ago. You can see that post here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19590646

Thanks for looking Chris
