It might be. Python does not perform the SSL handling itself but delegates it to an external SSL library ("OpenSSL" on a *nix like platform). SSL can use different protocols, e.g. for the encryption. The error message might mean that the server side uses a protocol which is not supported by the client side. In this case, you would need to use a more up-to-date SSL library.
