[smtplib] how to assure login was succesful?

[maurice]

Hello to all.

I have the following question:

Once my python script reaches the point where I login in my email account with: server.login(username,password) (where server server = smtplib.SMTP('smtp.office365.com:587')), it returns a tuple like this:

(235,
 '2.7.0 Authentication successful target host [address here]')

This method returns a tuple (code, resp). Just want to confirm if I use a variable to store code alone I should check if it is 235 or not, by looking at the reference it seems it is the only code value that does not raise an exception.

Thank you.
