No SSL support included in this python

I have default python 2.7 on my mac.

I am trying to run the following code using localhost with Google App engine:

def sendMail(TO, TEXT):

    fromaddr = 'me@gmail.com'
    toaddrs  = TO
    msg = TEXT

    username = 'me@gmail.com'
    password = 'testpass'

    server = smtplib.SMTP('smtp.gmail.com:587')
    server.starttls()
    server.login(username,password)
    server.sendmail(fromaddr, toaddrs, msg)
    server.quit()

But get the error No SSL support included in this python.

This works fine when I just run the python file on its own, separate from everything else.

But when I serve the files using localhost and access it from the website I get the above error.

Any idea why this might be happening?

Did you specify [SSL support](https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/python/sockets/ssl_support) in your `app.yaml`? – dhke Nov 18 '15 at 16:55
Are you using Python 2.7.9 or a different version? – erewok Nov 18 '15 at 16:57
I just added SSL Support... now I get the error on `server.starttls()` saying - `permission denied` – Greg Peckory Nov 18 '15 at 17:00
And running live on app engine gives the error - Socket API available once billed on admin console... is there an alternative? – Greg Peckory Nov 18 '15 at 17:05
