Hi All,
I have a custom email function that was working fine previously
(with gmail). Now after gmail's policies got updated, I am not able to use
it properly. I got myself an email server which works on port 465 (SSL) or
port 26(Not secure/not recommended version) for SMTP. Also, I am able to
send and receive mails using outlook or thunderbird for my mail server.
However, I am not able to send emails using my server settings from my own
custom software.
I feed my application with below -
1. smtp server, - mail.tsoft.xx.xx
2. port_no, - 465 or 26
3. user_name, -- username@
4. password -- password for the user
Now I am getting Connection refused error.
<class 'socket.error'> [Errno 111] Connection refused
File "/home/www-data/web2py/applications/Target/controllers/default.py", line
408, in new_ticket
email(team_name, mail_Subject , final_mail_body, img1)

6151, in email

self.sock = self._get_socket(host, port, self.timeout)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/smtplib.py", line 291, in _get_socket
return socket.create_connection((host, port), timeout)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/socket.py", line 575, in create_connection
raise err
error: [Errno 111] Connection refused
I referred to this group (below) but to no avail
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/web2py/Connection$20refused|sort:date/web2py/_cgI-jPfoIM/9p21qXtqHdEJ
I have tried changing my ports to 465, and 26 ( ironically only 26 works
from my local for sending mails but not in production where the application
is hosted. Even tried with it IP of the mail server but it wont work. even
tried with username without @ sign. Please suggest if you have any
idea/clues.
Thanks,
Rahul
