Send your first email

Create send.py:
from paubox import PauboxApiClient
from paubox.helpers.mail import Mail

client = PauboxApiClient()

mail = Mail(
    from_      = 'sender@yourdomain.com',
    subject    = 'Your first Paubox email',
    recipients = ['recipient@example.com'],
    content    = {'text/plain': 'This message was sent with the Paubox Python SDK.'}
)

response = client.send(mail.get())

print('Status:', response.status_code)
print('Response:', response.to_dict)
Run it:
python3 send.py
The response dict contains sourceTrackingId.

tracking_id = response.to_dict['sourceTrackingId']

disposition = client.get(tracking_id)
