Release Mailer 5.0.0

[10-mahmoud]

Hey there!

I'm about to start sending some emails, and Marrow Mailer looks like a great fit, especially for testability. Love the feature list and practical documentation. As a potential new user, I'd also love to see a release on PyPI, if possible? The latest (4.0.3) is from ~5 years ago (September 2019). It's reassuring to see that there have been a few maintenance commits added since then, but it's trickier to use them if I can't pip install them.

From what I can tell, there's nothing else in the Python ecosystem quite like marrow mailer, so I'm looking forward to release day!

Howdy!

Thanks!

I wrote it long ago to fulfill my own needs, and I'm just glad it's been useful for others!

I must apologize! I will endeavor to perform some additional outstanding cleanup (Python 2 is no longer really a requirement!) as soon as I have further recovered from my stroke—mostly once my vision has cleared up a bit and I can see properly again!—and issue a release. Should only take a few more days before my new glasses arrive. 🙂

As an aside, you technically can pin a version from SCM as a dependency in your requirements.txt or setup.py declarations, ref: Direct URL dependencies.

Thanks again!

Hey thanks for the response! Sorry to hear about the stroke, but relieved to hear that recovery seems to be going well.

Absolutely, I already started playing around with it via git/pip install. It's a little trickier with poetry and docker images which may not have git installed. And also it's a bummer to see the PyPI page look derelict when so much valuable maintenance has already been committed. But, maintainer health absolutely comes before appearances. :)

Hope the new glasses are a perfect fit, and thanks again!

Hey again! The last month zoomed by. Just dropping in today to check on this; I figured I'd also leave a comment and continue to wish you well. :)

Happy New Year! Looking at the backlog for the new year, just wanted to let you know I'm leaving "port to marrow mailer" open :) ❤️
