The app configuration used in a Flask Mail application (following Miguel Grinberg Flask developlemt book) :
app.config['MAIL_SERVER'] = 'smtp.googlemail.com'
app.config['MAIL_PORT'] = 587
app.config['MAIL_USE_TLS'] = True
app.config['MAIL_USERNAME'] = os.environ.get('MAIL_USERNAME')
app.config['MAIL_PASSWORD'] = os.environ.get('MAIL_PASSWORD')
The Mail Username and Password variables have been set correctly and rechecked. While trying to send a message using the following code,
from flask.ext.mail import Message
from hello import mail
msg = Message('test subject', sender='same as MAIL_USERNAME', recipients=['[email protected]'])
msg.body = 'text body'
msg.html = '<b>HTML</b> body'
with app.app_context():
mail.send(msg)
While sending, the application is again and again resulting in the following error:
SMTPSenderRefused: (530, '5.5.1 Authentication Required. Learn more at\n5.5.1 http://support.google.com/mail/bin/answer.py?answer=14257 qb10sm6828974pbb.9 - gsmtp', u'configured MAIL_USERNAME')
Any workaround for the error?
