How do I use smtplib with SSL in Python?

You can use the smtplib library in Python to send emails securely using SSL. First, you need to import the library and create an SMTP object with SSL.

Can you show me a code example?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

import smtplib

# Create a secure SSL context
context = ssl.create_default_context()

# Connect to the server
with smtplib.SMTP_SSL('smtp.example.com', 465, context=context) as server:
    server.login('[email protected]', 'your_password')
    server.sendmail('[email protected]', '[email protected]', 'Hello, this is a test email!')

What if I want to use a different port?

You can use port 587 for TLS. Just replace SMTP_SSL with SMTP and call starttls() after connecting.
