I want to send email in Django application using Outlook's SMTP server. The problem is, I get SSL wrong version number error every time I'm trying to send a message.
Error traceback:
Traceback (most recent call last):

This is my SMTP configuration in 'settings.py':
EMAIL_USE_TLS = True
EMAIL_HOST = 'smtp.live.com'
EMAIL_HOST_USER = '[email protected]'
EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = 'my_password'
EMAIL_PORT = 587
And this is how messages being sent:
from django.core.mail import EmailMessage
email = EmailMessage('Test', 'Test', to=['[email protected]'])
email.send()
I have no idea why I get this error. As far as I know, there are no SSL_VERSION parameter in Django settings.
If it is important, my interpreter's version is 3.3.2, and Django's version is 1.5.2.
I got it working with the following settings:
EMAIL_USE_TLS = True
EMAIL_HOST = 'smtp-mail.outlook.com'
EMAIL_HOST_USER = '[email protected]'
EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = 'mypassword'
EMAIL_PORT = 25
