I'm getting an error when installing "pyzmail" for Python on Mac OS (v10.15.5). See error code at bottom. I've attempted to load pyzmail as I do any other module via the Terminal using pip (currently running v19.2.3). I have had no issues installing 8 or so other modules (pyperclip, nltk etc). Any help would be greatly appreciated!
The exact syntax that throws this error is as follows:
pip3 install pyzmail
