Sending mails with esp8266 and micropython

Email is incredibly intricate at the mercy of multiple external servers any of which can drop it. Do not be fooled into thinking you can just do this or that and it'll work properly.

But whats the difference between sending a mail from the board and sending a mail with your favourite Mail client or Pythons smtplib for PCs?

Thanks for your tips.
