Greg Malcolm <g...@gregmalcolm.com> added the comment: I've uploaded a patch for 3.2 that throws a ValueError exception for non numeric port numbers and SMTPSocketConnectError for socket connection failures.
This patch introduces an API change, by creating the SMTPSocketConnectError which provides information about the socket error. The API documentation will therefore need to be updated if this patch is accepted. ---------- nosy: +gregmalcolm Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file18301/issue_2118_fix_for_py3.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2118> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
