bugfixes:
- fix mail module for python 3.7.0 (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/44552)
Fix mail module for python 3.7.0 (#44550) (#44552) In python 3.7.0, changes in `ssl.py` breaks `smtplib.SMTP_SSL`, which then breaks `mail` module in ansible. Run this line in python shell: import smtplib;smtplib.SMTP_SSL().connect(host='smtp.gmail.com', port=465) Before python 3.7.0, we will get: (220, b'smtp.gmail.com ESMTP j13-v6sm3086685pgq.56 - gsmtp') In python 3.7.0, we get such error at `lib/python3.7/ssl.py` line 843, method `_create`: ValueError: server_hostname cannot be an empty string or start with a leading dot. The ssl module is using host info on SMTP_SSL instance, which is not set. The fix/workaround is simple, just pass host info to it: import smtplib;smtplib.SMTP_SSL(host='smtp.gmail.com').connect(host='smtp.gmail.com', port=465) Fixes: #44550 Signed-off-by: Guo Qiao <guoqiao@gmail.com> 2018-08-23 08:50:54 +02:00			`bugfixes:`
