What is the Email Admin in the App Engine quotas?
email, gae-quotas, google-app-engine, python
Solution
The `google.appengine.api.mail` package has a function `send_mail_to_admins(sender, subject, body, **kw)` that will send the email to all admins of the application, and uses the Admin Emails quota, rather than the general one: Documentation.
Problem
I am sending emails with `EmailMessage().send()` from a Python App Engine app. After sending a few test emails to my gmail addres, in the Quota Details page I read this: ``` Recipients Emailed 5% 5% 5 of 100 Okay Admins Emailed 0% 0% 0 of 5,000 Okay ``` In the Permissions page my email address is the only one listed and it's the owner. I was expecting emails addressed to the owner of the app to fall in the Admins Emailed quota, not in the Recipients Emailed. Here it says: Admin Emails The total number of messages to application admins that have been sent by the application. What is the Email Admin quota for?
