    I'm trying to get 2.0RC3 working.  Finally got it to ise the correct StormSiren.conf file.

    I am wanting to use Gmail as my SMTP server as I do not run my own SMTP server, and have configured it to do so, but Gmail requires that TLS is used as part of the authentication.  It seems that smtplib.py does not support TLS?

      OK, after a little more investigation, it seems that smtplib.py indeed does support TLS, but a couple of things might be in the way of getting this to work.

      1) StormSiren does not tell smtplib.py to use TLS in this case

      2) As shown in this example (though possibly outdated):

      there may be a problem with the Gmail server.
