Hi,
first poster here. I still consider myself pretty much a Python newbie.
Let's say I have the following very simple Python code:
import imaplib
host = 'imap.gmail.com'
try:
imap_connection = imaplib.IMAP4(host)
print('success')
except imaplib.IMAP4.error:
print('authentication failed')
Now, Gmail doesn't like non-ssl connections. In this case I only want to return
an error. This worked for Pyhton 2.7 but in Python 3.4 I only get a traceback
(see below). The line print('authentication failed') is not executed at all.
How do I capture the error for using the print function?
Mac OS 10.10. Python 3.4.1. The script is part of a larger one that is talking
to my Xojo application.
