smtplib send email by using gmail smtp server

[tiefeng wu]

Hi all

I'm tring send email using smtp.gmail.com

here's the code:

*s = SMTP('**smtp.gmail.com* <http://smtp.gmail.com/>*', 25)
s.set_debuglevel(1)*
*s.ehlo()
s.starttls()
s.ehlo()
s.login(mygmailaccount, mygmailpassword)
s.sendmail(from_addr, to_addr_list, message)
s.close()*

I got the following:

*send: 'ehlo [192.168.1.104]\r\n'
reply: b'**250-mx.google.com* <http://250-mx.google.com/>* at your service,
[58.39.112.163]\r\n'
reply: b'250-SIZE 35651584\r\n'
reply: b'250-8BITMIME\r\n'
reply: b'250-STARTTLS\r\n'
reply: b'250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES\r\n'
reply: b'250 PIPELINING\r\n'
reply: retcode (250); Msg: b'**mx.google.com* <http://mx.google.com/>* at
your service, [58.39.112.163]\nSIZE 35651584\n8BITMIME\nSTARTTLS\nENHANCED
STATUSCODES\nPIPELINING'
send: 'STARTTLS\r\n'
reply: b'220 2.0.0 Ready to start TLS\r\n'
reply: retcode (220); Msg: b'2.0.0 Ready to start TLS'*

After a long time waiting I got:

*Traceback (most recent call last):
...
  File "sendmail.py", line 56, in send_mail
    s.starttls()
  File "C:\usr\bin\python30\lib\smtplib.py", line 619, in starttls
    self.sock = ssl.wrap_socket(self.sock, keyfile, certfile)
  File "C:\usr\bin\python30\lib\ssl.py", line 381, in wrap_socket
    suppress_ragged_eofs=suppress_ragged_eofs)
  File "C:\usr\bin\python30\lib\ssl.py", line 135, in __init__
    raise x
  File "C:\usr\bin\python30\lib\ssl.py", line 131, in __init__
    self.do_handshake()
  File "C:\usr\bin\python30\lib\ssl.py", line 327, in do_handshake
    self._sslobj.do_handshake()
ssl.SSLError: [Errno 8] _ssl.c:486: EOF occurred in violation of protocol*

After this I tried port 465, I got no debug messages like "send...
reply...", and after a long time waiting the following exception occured:

*Traceback (most recent call last):
...*
*  File "sendmail.py", line 49, in send_mail
    s = SMTP('smtp.gmail.com', 465)
  File "C:\usr\bin\python30\lib\smtplib.py", line 239, in __init__
    (code, msg) = self.connect(host, port)
  File "C:\usr\bin\python30\lib\smtplib.py", line 296, in connect
    (code, msg) = self.getreply()
  File "C:\usr\bin\python30\lib\smtplib.py", line 342, in getreply
    raise SMTPServerDisconnected("Connection unexpectedly closed")
smtplib.SMTPServerDisconnected: Connection unexpectedly closed*

Am I doing something wrong? I'm using python30 and python31a2 under Windows
XP

thanks!
