  • gmail-oauth2-tools

    Tools and sample code for authenticating to Gmail with OAuth2

  • Integrated with OAuth2 and register an app with Google to get a client secret. This should clear that up but honestly it's a hassle to do, I had a similar script (posted my story in another comment) and I always thought of going through and redoing it to authenticate with OAuth but it just seemed like a hassle. I found this which should help. https://github.com/google/gmail-oauth2-tools/wiki/OAuth2DotPyRunThrough

  • pysendsms

    Quick and simple way to send SMS via SMTP to known a cell carrier.

  • I created a project a while back to make this simpler to reuse for myself and I decided to upload it to pypi. It’s under PySendSMS. I included a json file with a bunch of the common carrier addresses and such as well.

  • VSTSBuildNotifier

    Monitor Visual Studio Team Services builds and receive text notifications.

  • List_of_SMS_gateways

    This content was previously available on WikiPedia but deleted as not really encylopaedia-worthy. Since an article of mine was originally a major source for the data in the page, I took a copy for posterity. It's now here on Github, reformatted as an editable CSV file and publicly editable by all.

  • if you need an .csv: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mfitzp/List_of_SMS_gateways/master/email2sms.csv from https://email2sms.info/
