New submission from Lars Pötter :
if the password contains non ascii characters then the login fails:
>>> smtObj.login(MAIL_USER, MAIL_PASSWORD)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
File "/usr/lib/python3.5/smtplib.py", line 720, in
Lars Pötter added the comment:
I wanted to login to an existing account so the password works OK in
Thunderbird.
Here in Germany it is recommended for safe passwords to use the German
umlauts(ßÄÖÜäöü). So code page 437 vs 850 or UTF-8 ?
If I could pass in the bytes then I could figure out
