I can't send email through django

[Tahinli]

Hi, I'm able to use my email with thunderbird, it's even configure settings automatically but in my django application I can't send an email through smtp. I tried different ports like 25, 465, 993 so on ... Nothing works. I know my django system is working because I already tested with outlook smtp. I couldn't understand why this is happening.

Only error I could say is:

SMTP AUTH extension not supported by server. when I'm using this settings.

EMAIL_HOST = 'mail.tahinli.com'
EMAIL_PORT = 587
EMAIL_HOST_USER = '[email protected]'
EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = '123'
EMAIL_USE_TLS: True
EMAIL_USE_SSL: True

465 and 25 ports stucks in loading, I mean returns nothing but infinite waiting.

[enaut]

EMAIL_USE_TLS: True
EMAIL_USE_SSL: True

I think those are mutually exclusive. Meaning, only one can be True. In case of port 587 TLS should be True, SSL False - I think.

Another working config would be:

EMAIL_PORT = 465
EMAIL_USE_TLS = False
EMAIL_USE_SSL = True

Other than that, it could be that Stalwart blocked the local IP - check your logs for errors. Without more detailed errors, it is hard to diagnose anything.

EMAIL_USE_TLS = False
EMAIL_USE_SSL = True

okay this worked, actually I tried every combination yesterday but today it worked strange. Now we have another problem, django says invalid credentials(I'm sure they are valid) and stalwart logs says this:

Try upgrading to the latest version, set the logging level to trace and check the logs to see what went wrong.

The error shown in the image appears to be related to the TLS handshake process. Specifically, it indicates that a handshake event occurred using TLS version 1.3 and a cipher suite of TLS13_AES_256_GCM_SHA384.

In Context with Port 465 Configuration:

* **Port 465 and SSL**:
  
  * Typically, port 465 is used for SMTPS (SMTP over SSL) where the SSL/TLS negotiation happens right from the start.

* **Issue**:
  
  * While the handshake was successful, if you are encountering issues with sending emails after this, the problem might not be related to the handshake itself.
  * Since the handshake is successful (indicating that SSL/TLS is correctly configured and working), the issue might lie in:
    
    * **Authentication**: Double-check that your credentials are correct and not blocked by the server.
    * **Server-Side Issues**: Ensure the mail server is correctly configured to accept connections on port 465 with the provided credentials.

Conclusion:

The log entry you provided shows that the secure connection was successfully established using TLS 1.3. If you are still facing issues, the next step would be to focus on the credentials or other configurations that might be causing the problem, rather than the SSL/TLS setup.

thanks for your ai solution but it doesn't solve anything

Okay sorry for making the robot response I was testing to see if making a bot to answer discussions would be worth it. But it seems that it was a stupid idea. I did some research on SMTPs and found this blog on smtps with Django: https://medium.com/django-unleashed/configuring-smtp-server-in-django-a-comprehensive-guide-91810a2bca3f

The problem you encountered later on is probably related to this config, which I'm not sure if you set up in the Django settings file:

# settings.py

# Email Settings
EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend' <---- you're missing this line``
EMAIL_HOST = 'smtp.your-email-provider.com'
EMAIL_PORT = 587
EMAIL_USE_TLS = True
EMAIL_HOST_USER = '[email protected]'
EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = 'your-email-App-password'

This line is always there actually, I just didn't mentioned sorry.
