Hello, @mabounassif Please provide more information about your issue and your environment. In general, for a regular connection with outlook.com, you don't need to create a custom backend. Your issue...

Looks like 587 is not ssl port ``` ~ curl smtp://smtp-mail.outlook.com:587 -v * Host smtp-mail.outlook.com:587 was resolved. * Trying 52.98.241.182:587... * Connected to smtp-mail.outlook.com (52.98.241.182) port 587 < 220 FR0P281CA0216.outlook.office365.com...

In python-email there is `tls` flag, set it to `True` to use STARTTLS And `ssl` flag should be `False`

May be I should just skip this tests on local tests (actually - run them only in Travis)...

I've [added](https://github.com/lavr/python-emails/commit/0e24112fb009641b80a562e5ca6f029fb8b3ad9c) some environment variables for testing, now you can use local smtp: ``` $ TEST_SMTP_HOST=localhost TEST_SMTP_PORT=1025 tox ```

relates to #73

It is certainly possible, but it is not planned for now.
