I am having trouble sending an e-mail without having to enable google's less secure apps: https://myaccount.google.com/lesssecureapps . How can I modify the code in Python so that I can send e-mail without having to enable this? I need to disable this option, because I am building an application in which the user can send a feedback e-mail to the developer, so I cannot force the user to enable less secure apps. My code in Python:
def send_email(self):
print("send e-mail to developer")
sender_email = self.email.text
sender_password = self.password.text
sender_feedback = self.feedback_message.text
print("email is: ", type(sender_email))
print("pass is: ", sender_password)
print("feedback message is: ", sender_feedback)
server = smtplib.SMTP('smtp.gmail.com', 587)
server.starttls() # encrypt connection
server.login(sender_email, sender_password)
subject = 'Feedback'
msg = sender_feedback
msg = f"Subject: {subject} \n\n {msg}"
server.sendmail(
# from,to,message
sender_email,
'my_email@gmail.com',
msg
)
print("E-MAIL HAS BEEN SENT!")
server.quit()
According to POP3/SMTP compatible with 2 factor authentication?- Help - Gmail , you need to set up an "app password" to be used instead of your regular password to be able to use an SMTP client when "2-step verification" is turned on for your Google account.
