TLS connection to smtp.gmail.com isn't working

I'm trying to figure out why the TLS connection to smtp.gmail.com isn't working, the code includes import ssl and I did the HELO before and after the STARTTLS command and then I wrapped the clientSocket with ssl_wrap. I'm entering my email address and password for the authorization. One thing to note is I'm not able to use smtplib. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? I can keep checking to see if the error numbers are possibly wrong but it seems to break down at authorization.

Here's the output in the console, after the last line I hit enter and keep getting blank spaces:

Here's the code:

Solution

TLS connection to smtp.gmail.com isn't working

Contrary to this claim TLS is working. The TLS upgrade is successful, otherwise further communication would not be possible at all. But HELO after the TLS upgrade works as expected and yields "250 smtp.gmail.com at your service".

What is wrong though is the login process. It fails to send a b"\r\n" after the base64 encoded username and password. This causes the connection to hang since the server expected more data before sending a response back.
