[issue20770] Inform caller of smtplib STARTTLS failures

[Varun Sharma]

Varun Sharma added the comment:

I think that raising an exception for starttls failure can be avoided, so i have added a patch for documentation which adds the following line to doc string : "If server supports TLS but fails to start it, then it does not raise any exception".
