So I'm trying to send an email through SMTPlib with Python, but I can't get it to work. I read up on the Microsoft SMTP specs, and put them in accordingly, but I can't get it to work. Here is my code:
# Send an email
SERVER = "smtp-mail.outlook.com"
PORT = 587
USER = "******@outlook.com"
PASS = "myPassWouldBeHere"
FROM = USER
TO = ["******@gmail.com"]
SUBJECT = "Test"
MESSAGE = "Test"
message = """\
From: %s
To: %s
Subject: %s
%s
""" % (FROM, ", ".join(TO), SUBJECT, MESSAGE)
try:
server = smtplib.SMTP()
server.connect(SERVER, PORT)
server.starttls()
server.login(USER,PASS)
server.sendmail(FROM, TO, message)
server.quit()
except Exception as e:
print e
print "\nCouldn't connect."
I got the code from a keylogger, but I cleaned it up a bit. I read up here on how basic SMTP works, but there are few things like starttls
(Methods) I don't quite understand.
I really appreciate any help with this.
