Automating the sending of daily email reports can be achieved using Python with libraries
such as `smtplib` for sending emails and `email.mime` for creating the email content. Here’s a step-
by-step guide on how to set it up:

### Step-by-Step Guide

#### 1. Install Required Libraries

Make sure you have Python installed. You might also need to install the `smtplib` and `email`
libraries, but they are included in Python's standard library.

#### 2. Import Libraries

You'll need the following libraries for sending emails and creating MIME objects:

```python

import smtplib

from email.mime.multipart import MIMEMultipart

from email.mime.text import MIMEText

from email.mime.application import MIMEApplication

from email.mime.base import MIMEBase

from email import encoders

import datetime

```

#### 3. Set Up Email Parameters

Define the email parameters such as the SMTP server, port, login credentials, and the recipient's
email address.

```python

SMTP_SERVER = 'smtp.example.com' # e.g., 'smtp.gmail.com' for Gmail


SMTP_PORT = 587 # 465 for SSL, 587 for TLS

SENDER_EMAIL = '[email protected]'

SENDER_PASSWORD = 'your_password'

RECIPIENT_EMAIL = '[email protected]'

```

#### 4. Create the Email Content

You can create a function to generate the email content. This content could include the subject,
body, and any attachments.

```python

def create_email(subject, body, attachment_path=None):

msg = MIMEMultipart()

msg['From'] = SENDER_EMAIL

msg['To'] = RECIPIENT_EMAIL

msg['Subject'] = subject

# Attach the body with the msg instance

msg.attach(MIMEText(body, 'plain'))

# Attach a file if specified

if attachment_path
