[Python] Unable to send mail from Godaddy registered email server using Python

We have a Godaddy account where we have registered our domain and configured an email address for sending and receiving mails. We are trying those credentials to send mail programatically using Python. This is the code we are trying:

import smtplib
from email.mime.multipart import MIMEMultipart
from email.mime.text import MIMEText

msg = MIMEMultipart()
msg.set_unixfrom('author')
msg['From'] = 'info@mydomain.com'
msg['To'] = 'myfoo@gmail.com'
msg['Subject'] = 'simple email in python'
message = 'here is the email'
msg.attach(MIMEText(message))

mailserver = smtplib.SMTP_SSL('smtpout.secureserver.net', 465)
mailserver.ehlo()
mailserver.login('info@mydomain.com', 'abc123')

mailserver.sendmail('info@mydomain.com','myfoo@gmail.com',msg.as_string())

mailserver.quit()


However, we are getting this error consistently:

Exception has occurred: SMTPServerDisconnected
Connection unexpectedly closed
File "/Users/nedstark/Desktop/code/foo.py", line 48, in <module>
mailserver.login('info@mydomain.com', 'abc123')
smtplib.SMTPServerDisconnected: Connection unexpectedly closed


Any idea how to fix this, or whether there is anything in Godaddy account that we need to configure?
