Hello,
I'm trying to use smtplib.login() to authenticate against a SMTP server...
server = smtplib.SMTP( 'localhost', 10025 ) server.set_debuglevel(1) server.login( 'user', 'password' )
send: 'ehlo host.local\r\n' reply: '250-host.local Hello localhost\r\n' reply: '250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN\r\n' reply: '250 STARTTLS\r\n' reply: retcode (250); Msg: host.local Hello localhost AUTH LOGIN PLAIN STARTTLS send: 'AUTH PLAIN dXNlcgB1c2VyAHBhc3N3b3Jk\r\n' reply: '535 Authentication failed\r\n' reply: retcode (535); Msg: Authentication failed
The above code results in "dXNlcgB1c2VyAHBhc3N3b3Jk" being send to the server. Which, after decoding, looks like "useruserpassword". Note that the user name is there twice. Which is going to seriously hamper any chance of authenticating properly :/
What am I doing wrong? Why is the user name being encoded twice?
Thanks for any help :)
Cheers
