Base class for email backend implementations.

Subclasses must at least overwrite send_messages().

open() and close() can be called indirectly by using a backend object as a context manager:

with backend as connection:

# do something with connection pass

Method	`__enter__`	Undocumented
Method	`__exit__`	Undocumented
Method	`__init__`	Undocumented
Method	`close`	Close a network connection.
Method	`open`	Open a network connection.
Method	`send_messages`	Send one or more EmailMessage objects and return the number of email messages sent.
Instance Variable	`fail_silently`	Undocumented

def __init__(self, fail_silently=False, **kwargs):

def close(self):

overridden in django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend, django.core.mail.backends.filebased.EmailBackend

Close a network connection.

def open(self):

overridden in django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend, django.core.mail.backends.filebased.EmailBackend

Open a network connection.

This method can be overwritten by backend implementations to open a network connection.

It's up to the backend implementation to track the status of a network connection if it's needed by the backend.

This method can be called by applications to force a single network connection to be used when sending mails. See the send_messages() method of the SMTP backend for a reference implementation.

The default implementation does nothing.

def send_messages(self, email_messages):

overridden in django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend, django.core.mail.backends.console.EmailBackend, django.core.mail.backends.dummy.EmailBackend, django.core.mail.backends.locmem.EmailBackend

Send one or more EmailMessage objects and return the number of email messages sent.
