https://docs.python.org/3/library/email-examples.html#examples-using-the-provisional-api contains the following code: from email.headerregistry import Address ... msg['From'] = Address("Pepé Le Pew", "pepe@example.com") msg['To'] = (Address("Penelope Pussycat", "penelope@example.com"), Address("Fabrette Pussycat", "fabrette@example.com")) But Address takes just the username, not the whole email address, as the second argument. So this should be written as: msg['From'] = Address("Pepé Le Pew", "pepe", "example.com") ... or: msg['From'] = Address("Pepé Le Pew", addr_spec="pepe@example.com") ...
