There is a bug in smtp_web.py it is on lines 463-465

Original: try: mailServer.docmd("AUTH LOGIN", base64.b64encode(provideruser.encode())) mailServer.docmd(base64.b64encode(pwd.encode()), "")

Updated: try: mailServer.docmd("AUTH LOGIN", base64.b64encode(provideruser.encode('utf-8'))) mailServer.docmd(base64.b64encode(pwd.encode('utf-8')), b"")
