+The EmailMessage and SMTPConnection classes
+===========================================
+
+**New in Django development version**
+
+Django's ``send_mail()`` and ``send_mass_mail()`` functions are actually thin
+wrappers that make use of the ``EmailMessage`` and ``SMTPConnection`` classes
+in ``django.mail``. If you ever need to customize the way Django sends email,
+you can subclass these two classes to suit your needs.
+
+.. note::
+ Not all features of the ``EmailMessage`` class are available through the
+ ``send_mail()`` and related wrapper functions. If you wish to use advanced
+ features such as including BCC recipients or multi-part email, you will
+ need to create ``EmailMessage`` instances directly.
+
+In general, ``EmailMessage`` is responsible for creating the email message
+itself. ``SMTPConnection`` is responsible for the network connection side of
+the operation. This means you can reuse the same connection (an
+``SMTPConnection`` instance) for multiple messages.
+
+The ``EmailMessage`` class is initialised as follows::
+
+ email = EmailMessage(subject, body, from_email, to, bcc, connection)
+
+All of these parameters are optional. If ``from_email`` is omitted, the value
+from ``settings.DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL`` is used. Both the ``to`` and ``bcc``
+parameters are lists of addresses.
+
+The class has the following methods that you can use:
+
+ * ``send()`` sends the message, using either the connection that is specified
+ in the ``connection`` attribute, or creating a new connection if none already
+ exists.
+ * ``message()`` constructs a ``django.core.mail.SafeMIMEText`` object (a
+ sub-class of Python's ``email.MIMEText.MIMEText`` class) holding the
+ message to be sent. If you ever need to extend the `EmailMessage` class,
+ you will probably want to override this method to put the content you wish
+ into the MIME object.
+ * ``recipients()`` returns a lists of all the recipients of the message,
+ whether they are recorded in the ``to`` or ``bcc`` attributes. This is
+ another method you need to possibly override when sub-classing, since the
+ SMTP server needs to be told the full list of recipients when the message
+ is sent. If you add another way to specify recipients in your class, they
+ need to be returned from this method as well.
+
+The ``SMTPConnection`` class is initialized with the host, port, username and
+password for the SMTP server. If you don't specify one or more of those
+options, they are read from your settings file.
+
+If you are sending lots of messages at once, the ``send_messages()`` method of
+the ``SMTPConnection`` class will be useful. It takes a list of ``EmailMessage``
+instances (or sub-classes) and sends them over a single connection. For
+example, if you have a function called ``get_notification_email()`` that returns a
+list of ``EmailMessage`` objects representing some periodic email you wish to
+send out, you could send this with::
+
+ connection = SMTPConnection() # Use default settings for connection
+ messages = get_notification_email()
+ connection.send_messages(messages)
