Being more Pythonic

from fluentmail import *

mail = FluentMail('smtp.gmail.com', security=SSL, credentials=('user', 'pwd'))
mail.body(u'<h2>Hi, I\'m FluentMail.<h2>', 'utf-8', True)
mail.send(from_address='you@bar.com',
          to=['other@bar.com', 'me@bar.com'],
          cc=[],
          bcc=[],
          reply_to=[],
          subject='FluentMail')

Authentication type

NON_ENCRYPTED

mail = FluentMail('smtp.yoursite.com', 25, NON_ENCRYPTED)

SSL

mail = FluentMail('smtp.yoursite.com', 465, SSL)

TLS

mail = FluentMail('smtp.yoursite.com', 587, TLS)

By default SSL uses port 465, TLS uses 587 and AUTH 25.
