Answer 1

You can use django's default sending multiple email system. From here: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/email/#sending-multiple-emails

You can try like this:

from django.core import mail
connection = mail.get_connection()

connection.open()
reciever_list= ['[email protected]', '[email protected]']  #extend this list according to your requirement
email1 = mail.EmailMessage('Hello', 'Body goes here', '[email protected]',
                          reciever_list, connection=connection)
email1.send()
connection.close()

For bulk email reference, you can check this so answer: How does one send an email to 10,000 users in Django?

Edit

From this stackoverflow answer, you can send emails with template. If you use django 1.7, html_message can be added as perameter of send_mail(). Details here.

By the way, for mass email handling, django has send_mass_mail() method.
