Question

This is my normal code in my VPS hosting which provide python 2.4

def mail(receiver,Message):
    import smtplib
    try:
        s=smtplib.SMTP()
        s.connect("smtp.gmail.com",465)
        s.login("[e-mail]", "password")
        s.sendmail("[e-mail]", receiver, Message)
    except Exception,R:
            return R

but unfortunately return this message! :
SMTP AUTH extension not supported by server.

in my computer which i’ve install python 2.7 i found the solution and it’s work very good here is this code :

def mail(T,M):
    import smtplib
    try:
        s=smtplib.SMTP_SSL()
        s.connect("smtp.gmail.com",465)
        s.login("[e-mail]","your_password")
        s.sendmail("[e-mail]", T, M)
    except Exception,R:
            print R

But in the VPS which installed python 2.4 doesn’t have SMTP_SSL() and return this message 'module' object has no attribute 'SMTP_SSL'

Also i’ve tried to upgrade my python in VPS but what happened is Damage the whole python that mean python not work at all.
