Hi
I'm having a test suite in python and i would like to email the result through my company server. I used a similar code but the code seems to be hung while waiting for a response from server during socket.connect() call. I traced the code and found that it enters the connect() method in smtplib.py and from there it enters readline() method in socket.py......this is where is waits forever for response from mail server.
If I do a "netstat -a" on DOS prompt, I can see that connection is ESTABLISHED between mail server and the connection I initiated via python script.
FYI: if I do a ping MYSERVER, I can see the response, So I am sure, the mail server on our network is responding!
import os
import smtplib
import mimetypes
from email.MIMEMultipart import MIMEMultipart
from email.MIMEBase import MIMEBase
from email.MIMEText import MIMEText
from email.MIMEAudio import MIMEAudio
from email.MIMEImage import MIMEImage
from email.Encoders import encode_base64
def sendMail(subject, text):
UserName = 'test.user@mailserver.com'
UserPwd = 'mypassword'
recipient = 'test.user@mailserver.com'
msg = MIMEMultipart()
msg['From'] = UserName
msg['To'] = recipient
msg['Subject'] = subject
msg.attach(MIMEText(text))
mailServer = smtplib.SMTP('192.168.178.22',1352)
mailServer.login(UserName, UserPwd)
mailServer.set_debuglevel(1)
mailServer.sendmail(UserName, recipient, msg.as_string())
mailServer.quit()
print('Sent email to %s' %(recipient))
if __name__ == '__main__':
sendMail('hi','hello how are u')Any comments would be of great help....thank you
