I have a short python script to send out emails (using the Gmail SMTP) - it works on my local machine (on my jupyter notebook) - but I wanted to put it on pythonanywhere and schedule it to run.
I have read this page: https://help.pythonanywhere.com/pages/GmailAppSpecificPasswords/ and other forum posts - but am a little confused - when I first set up my script - the tutorial that I followed said to ensure 2 factor authentication was not turned on - which according to the forum posts - needs to be on to do an app specific password.
Note - using other email services is totally ok with me - I just would like the setup to be clean and not spend $$ on the email service....so if someone really likes a service to use a different one - let me know! I saw mailgun on here but dont know much about it....
