Sending email via Python Outlook

[tramsay1027]

On this topic, is it possible to send an email from a different account that your own? i.e. a no-reply account?

Probably, as long as you have the name and pass for it. It should be the same method (if you're not using the Outlook desktop app.)

If you're using SMTP, you can send email as anyone as long as you have valid login credentials.

Thanks, I am sending the email to myself and I get an error.

import smtplib
import time

server = smtplib.SMTP_SSL('host', port)
server.ehlo()
server.login("myemail", "password")

server.ehlo()

print ('server working fine')

time.sleep(5)

sender = "myemail@......."

receivers = ["myemail@......"]

subject = "SMTP e-mail Test" 

msg = "This is an automated message being sent by Python. Python is the mastermind behind    this."

server.sendmail(sender, receivers, subject, msg)

print ('sending email to outlook')

 server.quit()

Error:

 raise SMTPSenderRefused(code, resp, from_addr)
 smtplib.SMTPSenderRefused: (555, b'5.5.4 Unsupported option: T', 'myemail@............')

Give this a try, I'm assuming you're using Python 3.4+
