In the next few lessons, you are going to learn how to send an email from your Raspberry Pi using Python.
So from your foundation knowledge, you have now learned how to use a pi sensor and how to work with
the terminal.
Since your Raspberry Pi is connected to the internet, it is also able to communicate with the outside,
which means that you can send emails.
Sending an email from your Raspberry Pi can be a very nice functionality.
For example, when you want to send a report of what's happened or to signal new events that you were
monitoring with the hardware connected to the board in this section, first we are going to create a
new Gmail account so you can send emails from that account directly from your Raspberry Pi.
Then you will discover how to send an email to your own email address with a subject, an email content
and an attachment and all that with a very simple to use Python module.
All right, and let's get started.
