✅

Use celery as a task queue and django-celery-email which is an Django e-mail backend that dispatches e-mail sending to a celery task.

Another option is django-mailer. It queues up mail in a database table and then you use a cron job to send them.

If we are talking about to send only 20 mails time by time, a thread may be a possible solution. For expensive background tasks use Celery.

This is a sample using thread:

# This Python file uses the following encoding: utf-8

#threading
from threading import Thread

...

class afegeixThread(Thread):
    
    def __init__ (self,usuari, parameter=None):
        Thread.__init__(self)
        self.parameter = parameter
        ...
      
    def run(self):        
        errors = []
        try:
             if self.paramenter:
                   ....
        except Exception, e:                
             ...
...

n = afegeixThread( 'p1' )
n.start()
