I'm getting this error:
raise SMTPRecipientsRefused(senderrs) smtplib.SMTPRecipientsRefused: {'[email protected]': (550, '5.1.1 : Recipient address rejected: hotmail.com')}
when trying to run my python script.
Regardless of what recipient address I put in, it will still give me the same error. I have postfix's configuration installed as local and it properly recognizes 'localhost' but not any of the sender addresses. This is my code:
import smtplib
def sendEmail(addressFrom, addressTo, msg):
server = smtplib.SMTP('localhost')
server.set_debuglevel(1)
server.sendmail(addressFrom, addressTo, msg)
server.quit()
msg = "This is the content of the email"
addressFrom = ""
addressTo = "[email protected]"
sendEmail(addressFrom, addressTo, msg)
And this is the main.cf file for postfix. Looking at it now,mydestination is only set to local addresses, could that be the issue?

Python comes with the built-in smtplib module for sending emails using the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). smtplib uses the RFC 821 protocol for SMTP.
Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) is a protocol, which handles sending e-mail and routing e-mail between mail servers. Python provides smtplib module, which defines an SMTP client session object that can be used to send mail to any Internet machine with an SMTP or ESMTP listener daemon.
If you want to use smtplib to send email to multiple recipients, use email. Message. add_header('To', eachRecipientAsString) to add them, and then when you invoke the sendmail method, use email. Message.
I faced a similar issue in my python script.
Use the following command to change the configuration of Postfix to Internet Site
sudo dpkg-reconfigure postfix
Change the Postfix configuration to Internet Site. This will resolve your problem and can send mail to any mail address.

Your code looks OK. This is very likely a configuration issue with Postfix.
