I want to test whether the password entered by the user of his google account is correct or not, but I am always getting INCORRECT as an output
How do I perform this?
Before asking this question I’ve tried :
import smtplib as s
ID = input("ENTER YOUR MAIL ID")
PASSW = input("pass")
server = s.SMTP("smtp.gmail.com", 587)
server.starttls()
a = server.login(ID,PASSW)
if a == True:
print("CORRECT")
else:
print("INCORRECT")
server.quit()

This should work just make sure Less secure app is enabled
import smtplib as s
ID = '' #your mail
PASSW = input("pass : ")
server = s.SMTP("smtp.gmail.com", 587)
server.starttls()
try:
server.login(ID,PASSW)
except SMTPAuthenticationError:
print("Password is wrong")
server.quit()
